HEAD TO HEAD
Egypt vs India
Verdict
India holds a 86–14 advantage over Egypt on the Relative Advantage Index, a decisive margin.
The margin is driven by military spending (97% of the combined total, $92.1bn) and economic size (GDP) (91% of the combined total, $3.9tn).
1 factor — nuclear warheads — could not be scored because the figure is unpublished for at least one side.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.
