After food and weapons, the third important product for a new player is Aircraft. Unlike the previous analyses, this edition focuses only on Q1 Aircraft. The reason is simple: new players mostly need Aircraft to complete their daily missions. At this stage, dealing maximum damage is less important than completing missions as cheaply as possible, so Q1 as cheapest is the most relevant quality for measuring new-player purchasing power. We use the same PPP method as in the Food and Weapon editions.
Top 5 countries for Air PPP
The results produce one very clear winner:
🥇 Poland — 615.77 Q1 Air per wage
🥈 Greece — 108.91
🥉 Brazil — 103.13
Georgia — 93.40
France — 86.62
Poland is far ahead of everyone else. With a wage of 1.601 gold and Q1 Aircraft available for only 0.0026 gold, one wage can theoretically purchase more than 615 units. Because this is such an extreme market price, Poland's advantage should be viewed as a snapshot of current market conditions rather than something guaranteed to remain permanent. Greece and Brazil follow at just above 100 Aircraft per wage, while Georgia and France complete the top five.
What about Saudi Arabia?
Saudi Arabia ranks 16th out of 24 eligible countries.
With its very strong 2.474 gold wage and a Q1 Aircraft price of 0.0776 gold, one Saudi NPC wage can buy approximately 31.88 Q1 Aircrafts
That puts Saudi Arabia well behind the leaders despite having one of the highest wages in the world. Once again, the reason is local pricing: Saudi wages are strong, but Q1 Aircraft are relatively expensive compared with the cheapest international markets.
Thank you to everyone supporting and following this PPP series. Next on the menu are Tickets as last product available for purchase and needed so players can mine after they reach lvl 10.
