Egypt vs Greece

Verdict

Greece holds a 53–47 advantage over Egypt on the Relative Advantage Index.

The margin is driven by military spending (77% of the combined total, $8.4bn) and logistics & power projection (62% of the combined total, 93). Egypt leads on active personnel and economic size (GDP).

1 factor — nuclear warheads — could not be scored because the figure is unpublished for at least one side. Those factors are excluded and the remaining weights renormalised, never substituted.
