    Before the war, it was generally ranked by the United States, Germany, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, France, Japan, Italy, and China. In the later period of World War II, the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, France, China, Japan, Italy, and China were due to the huge differences before and after World War II.

    1 The United States ranked first in the world in terms of industrial and agricultural output value and scientific and technological strength, but its military strength did not show much before the war, and its military strength of the land, sea and air force swelled sharply during World War II, ranking first in the world.

    2 Germany, at the beginning of World War II, was the third in the industrial world, second in science and technology, and first in the military, but due to the two-sided battle in World War II, it was finally defeated and second in overall performance.

    3 The Soviet Union, the second largest industrial power in the world before the war, was also very strong militarily, but mainly by virtue of its huge strategic potential, it was second only to the United States after the war. Third in overall performance.

    4 Great Britain, the first in naval strength and the first colony before the war, but its own country was small and did not have a strong army support, and the air battle of Britain was its brilliant work, and the overall fourth.

    5 Japan's army and navy were the strongest in Asia, but eventually their land forces were bogged down in China, and their navy was wiped out by the United States, with Pearl Harbor being its pinnacle, and basically controlling the eastern Pacific region. The last one was destroyed. Fifth in overall performance.

    6 China, with its relatively backward science and technology industry, was the weakest among the major powers before the war, but it was difficult to say that the successful eight-year War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the guerrilla warfare that passed on to future generations basically dragged down most of the Japanese Army. It was one of the five major countries in the post-war period and sixth in overall performance.

    7, France, Italy Both countries were considered great powers before the war, but France was destroyed, only the Free France barely resisted, and Vichy ** became a puppet, the only one of the great powers in World War II to be destroyed. Italy's invasion of the whole country barely defeated Ethiopia, and it is estimated that China will fight the small African countries about the same, and Italy did not have a brilliant performance in the frontal battlefield of World War II. The two countries are tied for seventh place overall.

    In terms of the strength of the army, the order of strength is Germany, the United States, the Soviet Union, Japan, France, Britain, and China.

    In terms of naval strength, the United States, Japan, Britain, Germany, France, the Soviet Union, and China are in order.

    In terms of air strength, the United States, Britain, Germany, the Soviet Union, Japan, France, and China are in order.

    If it is comprehensive strength, then the United States is undoubtedly the absolute boss, followed by Germany, followed by the Soviet Union, Japan, Britain, France, and China.

    The strongest order is: the Soviet Union, Germany, the United States, Japan, and the United Kingdom.

    Others do not enter the stream, including China's inflow. In World War II, either Germany or the Soviet Union could easily knock out the United States, and the biggest criticism of World War II was that Germany in first place and the Soviet Union in second pinched each other, and as a result, the United States, which was in the back of the line, picked peaches.

    At the beginning of World War II, Germany's **, tactics, science and technology, etc. were all strong, the Soviet Union was not bad, the Eastern Front was very simple to KO Japan, and the steel torrent tactics had been formed in Zhukov. In the same period, the United States was one grade worse than Germany and the Soviet Union in terms of industrial output value, tactics, and technology.

    1st place, Germany. The amazing combat effectiveness of the German army in World War II almost swept across Europe, you must know that the total number of German armed forces after World War I was only 100,000, and it was these 100,000 soldiers trained by high standards that became the backbone of the German army.

    In 1939, Germany's arsenal output had surpassed that of Britain and France combined, and the soldiers had inherited the discipline of deterrence since Prussia. With sophisticated equipment and extremely high military literacy, the German army at the beginning of World War II was unstoppable, and almost all countries in Western Europe were crushed by lightning tactics alone. Although the Soviet battlefield on the Eastern Front led to their final defeat, the German army almost quickly eliminated the Soviet Union as soon as it opened, and once the troops came to the city of Moscow, resulting in a staggering 8 million Soviet casualties.

    Germany was able to achieve such brilliant results despite its small land area, just after its defeat in World War I, and under the pressure of fighting on all fronts, and the German army's combat effectiveness was really terrifying.

    2nd place, United States. The United States is clearly the Kryptonite player in World War II. ** In terms of equipment and later supply, it is no longer a little ahead of other countries, especially in terms of logistics and supply, these gaps cannot be made up by a strong will to fight.

    All of this can be seen from the fate of Japan, which was forced to send suicide planes in the later stage, while the US aircraft carriers are still producing dumplings and going to sea. After the United States declared war on Japan, most of the factories were converted into military factories, and everything was only for military supplies. During World War II, the U.S. military fought on two fronts, annihilating more than 5 million German and Japanese troops, but the combat quality of the army was still far inferior to that of the German army.

    3rd place, USSR. The Soviet Union's military power was at its strongest during World War II, and the two five-year plans made the Soviet Union the world's second largest industrial power. Before World War II, the GDP reached $433, and the army remained at more than 6 million at any time, and at the end of World War II, it reached 12 million, making it the largest army in history.

    And the production capacity of the Soviet arsenal was not weak, only tanks and self-propelled guns produced 10,000 units, although the losses in wartime were also huge, but the Soviet Union was able to make up for it every time with strong industrial production capacity.

    In terms of comparison, on the whole, the strongest army strength during World War II was Germany, and the United States, the Soviet Union, Japan and other countries were the strongest. Of course, these are just personal opinions, which country do you think had the strongest military power during World War II?

    Approximately judging by the actual industrial production capacity of WWII, the potential of the United States was greater than that of the USSR, Great Britain, Germany and Japan combined.

    To be a big country should be a country with a certain amount of national strength and a prosperous country.

    Germany, recognized as the number one power, defeated all of Europe regardless of the strength comparison or the results of the battle, bombed the island nation of Britain, and then attacked the world territory and the powerful Soviet Union, and almost entered the capital of Moscow.

    As we all know, World War II involved many countries in the world, and among these many countries, I think Germany had the strongest military capabilities.

    There is also the United States, although the United States said that it only entered the war in the late stage of World War II, but its strong military capabilities were reflected in the later stage of World War II, whether it was the atomic bomb or our ** equipment, they all left a strong mark in World War II. However, because American soldiers have not experienced such a level of warfare, they may not be able to compare with German soldiers in terms of military quality, and their military ability is also behind that of the German army.

    Britain, Japan, and France, their capabilities are basically equal, and they all stand in the third place, and our third world countries, their military capabilities cannot be mentioned, they are too poor. World War II was fought entirely with perseverance.
