The U.S. military is considered to be the premier fighting force of the world. It has 2.1-2.3 million personnel and 4,800 sites (the majority are in the U.S.; overseas sites number roughly 750 across 80 countries). Add to that an annual budget of more than $700 billion and you have a force to be reckoned with. However, not all weapons used by the military are brand new. They tend to hold on to some of the best weapons and use them for a long time.
