If only all countries were like Switzerland, then this list would be unnecessary. It has a population 8.2 million where only 21,000 are actively serving the military. A further, 120,000 people are military reserves.

Switzerland features a small air force which does not even feature an attack helicopter. It has, however, a few attack aircraft and fighter jets which are reinforced by a similarly small subgroup of air transport devices. The Swiss military includes a bigger number of armored fighting vehicles and 224 combat tanks. It does not keep a naval force due to its location.
