Egypt vs Indonesia

Verdict

Indonesia holds a 74–26 advantage over Egypt on the Relative Advantage Index, a decisive margin.

The margin is driven by military spending (86% of the combined total, $15.0bn) and economic size (GDP) (78% of the combined total, $1.4tn). Egypt leads on active personnel.

1 factor — nuclear warheads — could not be scored because the figure is unpublished for at least one side.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.
