World View: Conventional Arsenal Degree of Currency (Excluding AFVs), 2021

Heat map depicting the relative currency of each indexed state’s inventory of indexed weapon systems in 2021. “Current” systems are those categorized as competitive (tier 2), advanced (tier 3), or cutting-edge (tier 4). Aging (tier 1) and obsolete (tier 0) systems are not considered current. Armored fighting vehicles (AFVs) are excluded; every indexed state has a large, mostly aging inventory of AFVs that can cause misleading noise in percentage appraisals of technological composition while accounting in most cases for a relatively small share of state CFP. CFPI defines the AFV category to consist of armed, armored vehicles other than main battle tanks (MBTs).
