Claims that one belligerent possessed all the good equipment while its opponent had none require unusually strong evidence. An extreme technological and economic imbalance between the powers could produce that situation. Between more comparable opponents, both sides can have effective equipment, even when one has more of it or holds the stronger overall position. Research into individual weapons and their context should therefore produce a mixed assessment. A blanket national ranking risks substituting a preferred worldview for that comparison.
