All armies try to cut off enemy supply lines. That isn't some sort of secret. But the conditions that Napoleon faced are not the same as the conditions the us would face. The comparison makes no sense. The United States wouldn't have to "live off the land" in a ground invasion of Russia. If the us got that far; past the naval and air defenses, supply would be a nonissue.
This is a tough one, like a few others have suggested it would be hard to see the US get a decent ground position & both Russia & China lack a navy/Airforce capable of invading the US well, however hypothetically, if this war were to happen, cyber-warfare is going to play a huge part we haven't seen before & i think China has the edge overall as information, as always, is the most important factor in war.
At the end of the day, no one will win. Those three countries will just pull us and the rest of the world into their selfish and petty war.
Russia have the biggest army in the world USA that's why they are most feared Putin would not think twice to nuke any country that's why trump is kissing his ass trump and Putin together bad combination full stop
china has the largest army in the world. us is second. india is third. north korea is fourth. russia is fifth.
We (us) would lose. We have so many enemies, some not flagrant about it and they would all jump ship and go against us. Not to mention, if war got brought to our soil the American people would wuss out and petition to withdraw, therefore losing
well that wasn't the scenario. if we are talking about bringing in allies, the united states would win outright. nato > russia south korea + japan + australia + taiwan + india (who really wants back that land china took) > china. it isn't even a contest if you include other countries beyond the 3 listed.
Honestly if this war is to happen, there won't be a winner, we all die and all the money we spent on this game will be for naught
Cute how people think another country could defeat the U.S. head to head without nukes. Ignorant but cute. We are generations ahead of the next country in line (China) as far as war technology. Russia is way behind. One day things will really break lose and the U.S. will truly unleash hell on whoever is the target, im not talking about this iraq afghan crap where were using our capabilities at about 10% bc were trying our best to keep civ casulties down. Im talking the U.S. in full on destroy mode, I pity you morons that think your country or any other could withstand it.
USA simply because no allies near it is against it. Vietnam, will want to invade China any chance it could because it fears China will try to take it prove the man made military island. Japan wants land to farm so it'll finish with what it started in WW2. South Korea will try to invade North Korea to reunite and subsequently try to take land to. Indian will feel it wants to even the score for border dispute. Now Russia, Ukraine wants to join the EU and regain lost land so it'll help USA invade Russia. Poland will join as a treaty and revenge for betraying it. Turkey and Russia have a nasty dispute going on so it'll either help or join depending on how it'll work. The Middle East would to give oil for higher pricess and military leaving it alone so it'll help USA . But at the end it'll create a huge war that will kill billions if not half of the population.
i didn't list them against russia, i listed them against china. i don't think that india would take sides at all in a war between russia and the united states.
