HEAD TO HEAD
Mexico vs Poland
Verdict
Mexico holds a 53–47 advantage over Poland on the Relative Advantage Index.
The margin is driven by economic size (GDP) (67% of the combined total, $1.9tn) and logistics & power projection (71% of the combined total, 89). Poland leads on military spending.
1 factor — nuclear warheads — could not be scored because the figure is unpublished for at least one side.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.
