If you ask me, more important than percent of GDP, is the percent of the actual money you have...
3 to 5 million out of over 23,19 million is the in country population according to last years census but that's beside the point. It's still a country of a 300 billion GDP who can afford to pay for some 48 F35's over the next 10 years.
