Description: "This comprehensive analysis examines the current force structures of Algeria, Libya, Morocco, and Tunisia - their armies, navies, air forces, and paramilitary and security forces. The authors show that many of these forces have grown beyond their nations' abilities to fund the equipment, manpower, training, logistics, infrastructure and sustainability needed to make them effective. Finally, the authors assess the future patterns and trends in military development in the region."--BOOK JACKET.
