US Has More Military Aircraft Than Every Other Country in the World

Creator of Map Chart, made the following map depicting the total number of military aircraft in every country. 
In absolute numbers, the US is far and away the world's dominant aerial power. The US boasts approximately 13,000 military aircraft. Comparatively, China and Russia, the world's next-largest aerial powers, only have a total of 2,000 to 3,000 military aircraft each. Nigeria has lee than 100 military aircraft why many Africa countries can boast of any.

This is only a quantitative measurement of air power, and there are several additional factors beyond total aircraft that need to be taken into account when measuring countries' air forces against one another. For instance, the map does not display the presence of various countries' air-force bases. Overseas bases are critical for US force projection, as they allow America to station its various military aircraft in locations all throughout the world
