Abstract
The work noted the relevance of the chosen topic at present, related to the ever-increasing world military budgets. The importance of the index of military power was emphasized, an analysis of its values in dynamics over the past 3 years was carried out in the context of the countries at the top of the rating. A methodology for calculating parameters related to the military power of the state is proposed - one of the strongest means of achieving political goals. Based on the analysis of the military power of the state, a mechanism for the functioning and development of military potential in cooperation with structural components within the framework of the total potential is presented. The military power of the state is, along with the structural components considered, a set of individual elements and organizations that function and perform their specific tasks. To create and ensure the effective functioning of this set of organizations, the amount of forces and means that forms the military power of the state is used. The relationship between the level of military potential, the state of the Armed Forces and the parties to the public life of the state was studied. The reasons for the high rating of military power in the USA, Russia, China, India and Japan in modern conditions have been identified. The general trend of the military power index values in the analyzed countries for 2019-2021 has been analyzed. Economic problems of increasing military power were noted and possible directions of their solution were indicated
