KDF Ranked 83rd Among World’s Strongest Militaries

Kenya has climbed in Africa and World military statistics, ranking 11th in Africa, and 83rd in the whole world. 

10 African countries were seen to have stronger military capabilities than Kenya in a recent global survey.

According to an annual assessment by Global Firepower, Kenya ranks 11th in Africa in terms of military strength, with Egypt leading the line in the continent.

Algeria, Nigeria, South Africa and Ethiopia round off the top four strongest military bases in Africa, with Angola, Morocco, DR Congo, Sudan and Libya also featuring in the top 10.

Despite South Africa making the top 10 in Africa, its recent decline in air and naval power saw the nation drop in the continental ranking.

On a global scale, Kenya has made considerable strides, sitting in position 83 in the tier of strongest militaries in the world.
