HEAD TO HEAD

Poland vs Türkiye

Verdict

Türkiye holds a 59–41 advantage over Poland on the Relative Advantage Index.

The margin is driven by economic size (GDP) (60% of the combined total, $1.4tn) and logistics & power projection (76% of the combined total, 120). 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1 factor — nuclear warheads — could not be scored because the figure is unpublished for at least one side.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.
