In 1945 India was still part of the British Empire so therefore their military would contribute to that of the British not their own till 1947 and later.

Well, that depends on what he meant by “after WW2” He could’ve meant September 10, 1945, or the late 1940’s in general

Fine 1947 and later.
So would India be after of before Australia!

So would India be after of before Australia!
Thats quite the question. Without the arms the British provided them with as well as considering that the number of troops in the Indian army was radically reduced when the country was partitioned at the time of Indian independence.
India does have the manpower advantage over Australia in a massive way but the equipment the British left them with was hardly that modern and they didnt have a large airforce either. So I would personally put Australia above India but only just, Australia’s large airforce negates India’s man power advantage and then some.
Interestingly enough today India is well on its way to becoming a miltary superpower with the world’s 4th largest airforce and a navy that is growing at a great rate of knots including the construction of 2 aircraft carriers and the purchase of a former Russian navy carrier.

Soviet or Russian AC?
An interesting article, thanks! But I don’t take the claims seriously. It would take the russians 20 years just to establish a culture of competent naval aviation. The americans have 70 years of serious naval avaiation experence that guided them in the constuction and operation of fleet carriers. I have posted these links elsewhere but they are always cool to look at!

It’s going to be a long long long time before any nation gets even close to the power of the US fleet.

Soviet Built Carrier Admiral Gorshkov. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_aircraft_carrier_Admiral_Gorshkov
What is interesting about the modern Russian navy is that they are beginning a massive shipbuilding operation to create a fleet that would give it the second largest carrier force in the world. The Russians are currently planning a fleet of 6 carrier battle groups of large carriers that would rival the Nimitz class carriers in size. Whether or not that will actually happen is a matter of great debate but if it does it greatly shifts the balance of power in the worlds oceans. The real question is if they get their carriers what are they going to do with them?Link to story on plan for 6 Russian carrier battle groups

Thats good. It’s sad to see the world’s navies mothballed. If I’m not mistaken I heard that Turkey has a navy as large as the Royal Navy!
