The Islamic World should form a NATO type alliance where they share and develop weapons and give military and economic protection and an alliances to deter threats and attacks from other powers.
For the main countries to lead this alliance they need to have strong and well trained militaries.
In my opinion, the ranking of the 10 best Militaries in the Islamic World
1 - Turkey
2 - Pakistan
3 - Egypt
4 - Iran
5 - Saudi Arabia
6 - Jordan
7 - Syria
8 - Indonesia
9 - Oman
10 - Kuwait
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
^ you mean something like OIC? :D
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
Nope something like :biggthumb NATO maharaj ji
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
Only Pakistan and Turkey are OK as far as military might is concerned. The Saudis probably can't tell a camel from an F-16, Egypt has been thorughly thrashed by a country 1/100 its size, so obviously they're wayyyyyyyy down the curve. To see a country like Kuwait on the top 10 list is a joke in itself.
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
According to me Country like **Iran **could alone control Turkey, Pakistan, Egypt.
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
i dont think so. Particularly against our adversary
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
what do you mean control?
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
I think only three can do
Pakistan, Iran and Turkey
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
Pakistan, Iran and Turkey
A war between Pakistan and Iran, and Pakistan will destroy Iran
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
No I am just talking about what are the three best in my opinion. It ain't a comparision among the Muslim armies.....
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
maybe so at the moment, through sanctions and trading dificulties but the ambition of iran is huge. if they can come away from this present situation without being attacked by the world(which they wont) then iran will be the nation to put the views of islamic nations forward. infact if there was any islamic nation of considerable military power we wouldnt be seeing the current situation at all.
OIC have already got a military agreement to protect each other but to create a military 'might' is beyond the members of these states. also any attempts to build up this alliance will be dealt with by you know who. each step in this process requires considerable willpower(i cant see it, can you?). plus co-operation between different islamic countries has never been great
Turkey are too busy begging to convince EU that they are not pakis, eu doesnt believe them!
An apna Manufacturer
Pakistan would be the first choice for nearly all of the islamic world if they were to offer weapons for sale, especially those of a detterent world class standard. the major obstacle being industrial infastructure to supplement weapons manufacture. without a reliable supply of weapons, theres no detterent to anyone on a once every 50 years rampage
my two ruppees worth
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
So true. All Arab nations should be at the bottom of the list.
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
An alliance between Pakistan, Turkey, and Iran would be quite powerful. Of the three I believe Pakistan is the strongest. Consider this: When Turkey recieved its first batch of F-16s it were the Pakistani pilots who trained and set up their entire Infrastructure. Also, I believe Pakistan, probably after Israel, has the highest standard of selecting pilots for airforce among so many applicants.
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
In order:
Pakistan
Turkey
Iran
Indonesia
If Nukes are taken out, then:
Turkey
Pakistan
Iran **
**Indonesia
I second that.
Regardless of some of their superior tech, they barely know how to operate anything. Arabs had to import pilots to fly high-tech air planes.
It'll only happen if the Arabs run out of oil quickly & stop kissing the white-man's ass.
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
Best Armies in the Islamic World are the following:
All the rest, namely armies of muslims state are nothing but proxies of their colonial masters in the west...

i totally don't agree with #2...all they do is attack innocent civilians
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
yep, Aytullak Khameni is a Unamned Land Vehice controlled from America ffs.
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
KSA, Iran, Turkey .. all spend more on their military than Pakistan. But greater expenditure doesn't always translate into better defense force. The proposed alliance is not possible because KSA (the biggest spender) has concerns about the regional ambitions of Tehran. There's no Taliban to the East and no Saddam to the West. Syria is being ruled by a friendly king. Lebanon has Hizbulla. I suspect that Riyadh is not too happy with this growing influence of Tehran.
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World
As Rumsfeld and other neo-cons would say, "bad things happen in wars"...
Re: Best Militaries in the Islamic World

this ranking also depends on the terrain in which they are fighting in
