When I google "Israel military budget," an answer comes up in the quick answer window, citing this page. Yet Israel no longer appears on this page. This seems to suggest that it existed on this page but was recently deleted, though I haven't been able to find which reversion deleted it. (I'm kind of a noob when it comes to looking through edit histories.)
I'm not sure whether this was political vandalism, and oversight, or there was some legitimate reason to delete it. Anyone want to look into this?
Update: It was deleted by an IP on the 21st, along with Australia and Iraq, from the IISS chart. There was no edit summary and deleting them appeared to be the entire edit. I since put them back in, but as there was a subsequent edit, I didn't revert.
last I checked you can take Israeli military budget from it's official government site and it stands at approx. 84,000,000,000$ so probably someone in IISS and SIPRI is very misinformed... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.176.7.120 ( talk) 06:24, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

The IISS figures which purport to show expenditure figures actually show budget figures (see here and compare: https://www.iiss.org/-/media//images/publications/the%20military%20balance/milbal2016/mb%202016%20top%2015%20defence%20budgets%202015.jpg?la=en). Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought budget and expenditure were two different things? A budget is the total amount of money a country has allocated to spend, whilst expenditure is what it actually spent. They're two different things.
I recommend we move the IISS figures to a new article on budgets and only use the SIPRI expenditure figures for this one. -- TheArmchairSoldier ( talk) 16:41, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
I have no idea how to fix this, but the tables don't sort correctly when they sort by rank. They're sorting on the first digit rather than the whole number, so it goes 1, 10, 11, 12...19, 2, 20, 3, 4 etc. 86.8.22.13 ( talk) 23:35, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
I changed the name "Rest" in the table of total expenditure to read "Non-US", which is what it is (otherwise it makes no sense when you re-sort the table). That said, it seems a little bit political to include vs. just presenting each company independently. Should we delete? 96.45.202.82 ( talk) 19:31, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
I added the EU to this page because the EU was already on the List of countries by GDP (PPP). Why have it on one and not the other. We need to have it consistent across Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Legohead1 ( talk • contribs) 14:23, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

I've also added version for 2013 and 2015 now. 2013 covers essentially the same countries but is older. 2015 is noticeably less complete. I suggest sticking to 2014 for now. Pipping ( talk) 19:17, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
Some of the expenditures as a % of GDP's on the SIPRI list aren't mentioned in either of the sources given in this article, so I'd like to know how they were estimated - that is, with whose estimates of GDP; the IMF's, World Bank's, or UN's? Example: Oman, it's military expenditure is listed as being 9.9 billion in 2015, in the second source, but it's % of GDP isn't listed in the first source (which some of them are). The second source lists no %'s of GDP that are the military expenditures. What is odd is that the IMF lists Omans GDP as 64.1 billion (USD) in 2015, the World Bank lists it as 70.3, and and the UN as 81.8. Calculating the expenditure as a % of GDP using these three estimates would give us 15.4, 14.1, and 12.1% respectively, leading me to the conclusion that another estimate was used.

Shouldn't there be some explanation for the absence of any figures on North Korea? James Galloway ( talk) 15:23, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

I have a vague objection to this figure as it isn't really the millitary expenditure, it's the millitary expenditure/gdp. This makes it seem like Russia is the biggest spender(as these sort of graphs are usually X per capita or area), which isn't true by a long shot, but only becomes clear if you know the GDP of Russia. I think a clearer diagram would be the direct spending amount. Does anybody else agree? byo ( talk) 06:14, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
Is there a reason to not include per capita military spending? Using spending as a % of GDP doesn't give the whole picture since GDP per capita is far from constant. Since military spending comes from public money, this gives a different and meaningful way of understanding military spending by expressing what an average citizen pays their government annually to build, maintain, and operate its military (which neither %GDP nor absolute spending conveys).
The SIPRI military database has this information, and has information for a much wider range of nations than are included in the article: [1]
Is there a reason this page is so anemic? I'll expand it in the next few days unless I hear a good reason it excludes presumptively relevant information.

Hi @ Khelben101: I did read your email and would appreciated it if you would rather continue the discussion here. Primarily, because this makes the discussion public and other editors can also chime in when required and secondary reason is that I don't check my email that frequently. Now to the points you have raised, (1) This is a list about countries by military expenditures not economic unions/groupings. EU by no means of imagination is a joint military group and cannot be included in the list. Even NATO cannot be. Moreover, both the lists are based on SIPRI and IISS which, AFAIK, do not release any of these numbers but only do so for each individual country. (2) About adding countries beyond 15 in the SIPRI list. Here SIPRI does release it's data publicly but limits the reproduction of it's database/lists to only 10% of the content ( [2]). This is very important and we cannot extend the list further without committing a Copyright violation which is harmful to Wikipedia and will lead to that specific content being deleted. Hopefully this answers your questions. Adamgerber80 ( talk) 22:43, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

Canadian defence expenditure is wrong. The number in the pie chart is stated to be in USD, in fact it is the amount in Canadian dollars. If it is converted correctly it should be 25 to 30% lower.

An improbable number of countries in a row are spending 2.2 percent of their income on the military--it looks like a glitch. Nareek ( talk) 18:22, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
Canadian defence expenditure is wrong. The number in the pie chart is stated to be in USD, in fact it is the amount in Canadian dollars. If it is converted correctly it should be 25 to 30% lower. This correction affects listing and status throughout the article. Refer to Canadian government expenditures and estimates website to confirm if in doubt. How much else is less than accurate if a simple check can find this fault. CPO1321HT ( talk) 21:05, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

In response to Germany's announcement of an increase in defence spending and User7355608's edit, I wanted to point out that Germany's announcement is of a fund of €100bn, which sounds like it will be multi-year expenditure. It seems like Germany's defence spending will go from about 1.5% to 2% of GDP. Germany to set up €100bn fund to boost its military strength Kookiethebird ( talk) 07:34, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
