尽管苏美两国整个军费开支差别,显示出美国日盆处于不利的地位,但是,比较两国军费开支尚不能真正反映两国部队改进的迅速程度,以及防御采购和国防工业基础的规模。最近,美国中央情报局发表了苏美防御活动方面的比较。这些比较反映了双方防御采购活动或者双方实现部队现代化的速度,它们显示了美国逐渐趋向于劣势。 Although the differences between the two countries in the entire military spending show that the United States is at a disadvantage, comparing military expenditures between the two countries can not really reflect the rapid improvements made by the two armed forces and the size of the basis for defense procurement and defense industries. Recently, the CIA published a comparison of Soviet and U.S. defensive activities. These comparisons reflect the pace of defensive procurement either by the two parties or the modernization of the military forces on both sides, which shows that the United States is gradually heading towards a disadvantage.
