Battle Tanks vs. Luxury cars


I just read a comment that maintains that there are more luxury cars in the Pakistan Army than tanks.

While I find this difficult to believe, I still can't help wondering what the actual ratio of luxury cars vs. tanks might be?

Can anyone help?

According to Wikipedia the Pakistan Army has 2315 tanks.

The Pakistani senior officers cadre (retired and otherwise) probably have in excess of 200 luxury cars.

My guess would therefore be a probable ratio of 1:10.

I wonder what ratios would apply to the US, Indian, British or Chinese Armies?

Please be fair, make comparisons with countries like Myanmar.

Dear S.Said,
Are you seriously suggesting that our generals are as power hungry and money obsessed as their colleagues in Myanmar?

Reducing weight is not so easy, dieting and regular exercise help to maintain weight but they are not very effective for significant weight loss.
