True, but China and Russia are on the rise, whereas the USA is falling. The only reason they're still afloat is with the support of growing economies like China.

So, China might be low on food, but the entire American government and economy will collapse. They literally wouldn't be able to produce tanks or hire soldiers.

>>4791782
The USN relies far too heavily on aircraft carriers. Every analysis during the Cold War showed that as soon as the USA got into a shooting war with a country that had access to ballistic missiles, carriers would start going down. If you can't be bothered reading the Pentagon assessments on this, go dig out Clancy's _Red Storm Rising_ which dramatized the same events.

Most USN thinkers and naval strategists in general believe that if the USA got into a shooting war with China or Russia, they would simply spam SSMs (or possibly air-launched missiles, depending on context). Despite the much-heralded glory of the Aegis system, the sad fact is that Silkworms and Sunburns are far beyond USN capacity to counter. Carriers *would* go down.

In the long term, the USN has the capacity to absorb those losses but general thought at present is that the US public would lack the ability to deal with something as traumatic as the loss of a carrier (let alone the likely loss of several carriers).

You dont START a world war, OP.

You END one.

This is how USA has maintained its back-to-back world war championship title.

WWIII will be started by israel, fought by iran and saudi (the jewpuppets of tomorrow) and given world war status by russian interventions ( sale of planes, trains and cranes to iran)

Then the pakis will implode, india says fuck it and goes for kashmir, and china be like, nuh uh motherfuckers.

Then southeast asia says fuck yo china, zerg rush and free tibet and best korea.

Only after everyone has everyone else's dick firmly up each others butts, will America be like... All right fellas, we'll come fix this one for you again...

Take out russia (finally) from the inside, steal all their nukes and pay off the chinese debt by selling them eastern russia which theyve wanted forever.

Without russia, iran falls, pakistan takes indian dick up the bum, southeast asia (the other europe) stays free, plus marshall plan and US bases because murika strong

Any predictions on wo will be the france of southeast asia ( surrender within first year lel)

2nd: >>4791782
Both Russia and especially China are going through rapid navy modernization process, and both will soon become a blue-water navies. Your army maybe is more advanced than the Chinese, but you can't measure that by the fact 20 US special soldiers have uberguns with night vision optics, you gotta take in count the whole army. As long as it has guns, it's pretty dangerous. And do you really think your 1.5 mil of active personnel can go against 2.2 mil of Chinese without problems? Or your 60 mils fit for military service against their 310? Let's not forget the US public debt and social protests in the Western countries happening lately.
Then again, we must ask the question of invading forces and use of nukes. Let's say there are no nukes. I suppose the countries would fight phony wars with each others, using other countries for guerilla attacks. Full scale attack on mainland of any country would be a disaster for the attacking force. If we look at the neighbours, US might be in a better position than China (they have Japan, Korea, Taiwan - all US minions), whereas the only danger for US could come from south (Bolivarian alliance, ALBA or whatever it is down there). There's anti-imperialist and anti-american mood down there.
Russia will maybe get analysed later.
Cheers for now!

>>4792234
In case you were talking about WWII, yeah, they stopped Japan's plan by nuking them TWICE. In Europe it was mostly Russia's work (especially because Hitler said, after a failed invasion, that the war is lost). In both wars you decided to rush in late and act like a victor (3 years late in WWI and 2 years late in WWII). Anyway it's history, not like all the vets are going to fight this WWIII.

>Implying we won't easily get air superiority.

>>4792309
It's easy to have an air superiority over a country like Libya or Iraq where you and your 416541 NATO allies (well, our NATO allies since we're in NATO, too) gangbang their mediocre air force which consists of 5 planes and 10 helicopters. Try doing the same thing to Russia or China (and maybe both of them combined). Don't think it will be easy. You'd probably win against aircraft, but your losses would be high and I don't know how would it end up with anti-aircraft systems and rocket batteries. Don't think you're the meanest motherfucker of all, in such huge numbers none of our predictions can be true.
>>

The US has 3,318 fighter aircraft and 6,417 attack helicopters.

You don't know shit about anything do you?

First the foreign policy: there won't ever be a WW3. The Cold War made this clear. Foreign policy has changed. No one wants to be the catalyst for the next mass cause of death and despair. If anything were to happen, Russia and Germany would team up. However, they have no personal vendetta against the USA-Japan team that is strong enough to cause all out war. Iran is going to be soon balanced out by Turkey and these two powers will be too busy with each other in future years. The same goes for Pakistan and India. And then there are hundreds of other countries that would make best attempt to avoid this war. No one wants it.

Second, the economics: the United States still controls about 25% of the world's wealth. Our private industry owns China. If kids in the USA start buying a new iWhatever, little kids in China will be there to work for them. And once their honestly great economic growth begins to slow down (as it always seems to do), the Chinese will start to realize that they are a gigantic mess because everyone is in abject poverty and once again, we will see China fall (as it always does). The mainland hasn't been invaded in over a century because everyone knows THAT WOULD BE FUCKING RETARDED.

tl;dr US private industries still own the world.

>The US has 3,318 fighter aircraft and 6,417 attack helicopters.

How many of them do you think you could reliably locate to and equip for missions over, say, China?

Aircraft don't mean shit anymore. Nor do aircraft carriers. It's all about ballistic subs these days.

Neither Russia nor China want war. They will both do as much politicking as possible to preserve their allies Syria and Iran, but their actions will stop well-short of going to war. China is only interested in making money. They will sit back and let the US bankrupt itself fighting war after war for Israel. Russia lacking any other options, will do the same. USA is a sinking ship and a war with Iran would be the biggest hole yet. My advice to you is to get out while you can. Immigrate to New Zealand or Iceland or something while your passports are still worth the tracker-chips they're printed on.

But the Russian/Chinese joint fiorce would crush our air force, because it's not like ALL of our planes outstrip theirs. Our F-22s aren't 100% of our air force, the planes t hey each have are recent. There hasn't been a huge change to air superiority fighters in decades.

ITT no one understands how economies/governments work.

If China decided to break all ties with us tomorrow, or in a better-case scenario waged war on the US, the 'debt'(really bearer-bonds) we owe them would be immediately wiped clean.

As to those saying the dollar would tank and we wouldn't be able to pay for tanks, you forget that:
1)we have a huge stockpile of weapons, ammunition, and raw materials for such things
2) The US government can and will take over the means of production. See: World war II. depression era, dollar worth shit, economy tanked. But they open factories to build tanks and shit anyway.

>If China decided to break all ties with us tomorrow, or in a better-case scenario waged war on the US, the 'debt'(really bearer-bonds) we owe them would be immediately wiped clean.
What is important is the recognition of the US Dollar as a standard currency to value other currencies off of. That will end the second the US does anything retarded. China is already buying into Russia for their Yuan.

>1)we have a huge stockpile of weapons, ammunition, and raw materials for such things
No. Ammunition demand has outdone the suppliers, and is going on to affect private sales of ammunition in the US.

>2) The US government can and will take over the means of production. See: World war II. depression era, dollar worth shit, economy tanked. But they open factories to build tanks and shit anyway.
Means of producing what? All your fucking factories are overseas now. You have farms that are going to get bumfucked by the next drought. That's about it. You're not even producing your weapons locally anymore. There are like 14 other countries tied into producing parts for the F-35.

You mean that BANKS in the US control 25% of world wealth? What, you think those banks are just going to throw in their money for the war cause? Also, with dollar being a fiat currency, you're unable to stop its decline (because it has no back up) if, in case of a war, other countries stop trading it. So all that money can be useless. Also, your info just says how much money someone has, not how much money is it worth. For example, in Africa whole village can life for a month with just few dollars. It suits their needs, but that village has a million time less wealth than some US or European village. Things aren't all black and white, where the one with more money is wealthier than the other. Btw, US poverty rate is 15.1 percent, and China's is around 16 (2006 stats).

Your industry makes up for 22.1 of your GDP, however I bet you it's mostly high-tech industry (IT, robotic, bioengineering). And as the guy who I quoted above stated, most of your shit is produced in China, starting from ships over plastics over electronics. So 25% of world's wealth mean shit if you can't use it to make something productive. All US factories based in US would get confiscated and used for military production.

There won't be a World War III, certainly not between the US and the aforementioned countries.

Iran's problem is that it sees the US as erratic as fuck and it wants the US to take troops off its borders. Which the US wants anyway. The US and Iran fight Sunni Muslims as well, because the US hates the turrists and because Iran is a Shiite country. The US wants the Strait of Hormuz cleared, and Iran would like to profit from its proximity to the Strait. There's some horse trading to be done, but I think Iran will take entente with the US over war.

China doesn't own enough debt to "buy" the US, and the mechanics of US Treasury bonds make it unlikely that China will sell the bonds prematurely in an effort to tank the US bond market. Because of how the Fed has structures T-Bonds (irony goes here, /pol/) China can't efficiently "call in" its debt to the US.

Nope. Being powerful doesn't mean omnipotent. The US is severly limited when it comes to grand scale land warfare. The same seas that protect the US from invasion also make the deployment of troops overseas a difficult task. More people is nedeed to carry ammunitions and food overseas. That severly limits the US land power and as result its forces are always outnumbered even by third world forces.

It is not invincible, but it is massive. The issue is that any Russian Commander who is not brain dead knows they can just keep retreating, and re-engage the enemy later. This increases the length of the enemy's supply lines, provided the Russian used scorched earth (which they have done before, and have no reservations about doing it again).

From the west to the east, Russia is roughly 6,600 miles long. That is a lot of space to back up.

Conclusion
The wars fought throughout the United States' history have been won, with the notable exception of a strategic and political defeat during the Vietnam War. The War on Terror and the Iraq War are ongoing with no decisive outcome yet.
>>
When the United States fights in the Eastern Hemisphere, it fights at great distances, and the greater the distance, the greater the logistical cost. More ships are needed to deliver the same amount of material, for example. That absorbs many troops. The logistical cost of fighting at a distance is that it diverts numbers of troops (or requires numbers of civilian personnel) disproportionate to the size of the combat force.

Regardless of the number of troops deployed, the U.S. military is always vastly outnumbered by the populations of the countries to which it is deployed. If parts of these populations resist as light-infantry guerrilla forces or employ terrorist tactics, the enemy rapidly swells to a size that can outnumber U.S. forces, as in Vietnam and Korea. At the same time, the enemy adopts strategies to take advantage of the core weakness of the United States -- tactical intelligence. The resistance is fighting at home. It understands the terrain and the culture. The United States is fighting in an alien environment. It is constantly at an intelligence disadvantage. That means that the effectiveness of the native forces is multiplied by excellent intelligence, while the effectiveness of U.S. forces is divided by lack of intelligence.
>>
russia beat a super power (nazi germany) America never will deal with beta faggots.
>>
>>4801485

The United States compensates with technology, from space-based reconnaissance and air power to counter-battery systems and advanced communications. This can make up the deficit but only by massive diversions of manpower from ground-combat operations. Maintaining a helicopter requires dozens of ground-crew personnel. Where the enemy operates with minimal technology multiplied by intelligence, the United States compensates for lack of intelligence with massive technology that further reduces available combat personnel. Between logistics and technological force multipliers, the U.S. "point of the spear" shrinks. If you add the need to train, relieve, rest and recuperate the ground-combat forces, you are left with a small percentage available to fight.

The example of the capitulation of Germany and Japan in World War II is frequently cited as a model of U.S. forces defeating and pacifying an opposing nation. But the Germans were not defeated primarily by U.S. ground troops. The back of the Wehrmacht was broken by the Soviets on their own soil with the logistical advantages of short supply lines. And, of course, Britain and numerous other countries were involved. It is doubtful that the Germans would have capitulated to the Americans alone. The force the United States deployed was insufficient to defeat Germany. The Germans had no appetite for continuing a resistance against the Russians and saw surrendering to the Americans and British as sanctuary from the Russians. They weren't going to resist them. As for Japan, it was not ground forces but air power, submarine warfare and atomic bombs that finished them -- and the emperor's willingness to order a surrender. It was not land power that prevented resistance but air and sea power, plus a political compromise by MacArthur in retaining and using the emperor. Had the Japanese emperor been removed, I suspect that the occupation of Japan would have been much more costly. Neither Germany nor Japan are examples in which U.S. land forces compelled capitulation and suppressed resistance.

There are two problems with American strategy. The first is using the appropriate force for the political mission. This is not a question so much of the force as it is of the mission. The use of military force requires clarity of purpose; otherwise, a coherent strategy cannot emerge. Moreover, it requires an offensive mission. Defensive missions (such as Vietnam and Korea) by definition have no terminal point or any criteria for victory. Given the limited availability of ground combat forces, defensive missions allow the enemy's level of effort to determine the size of the force inserted, and if the force is insufficient to achieve the mission, the result is indefinite deployment of scarce forces.

Then there are missions with clear goals initially but without an understanding of how to deal with Act II. Iraq suffered from an offensive intention ill suited to the enemy's response. Having destroyed the conventional forces of Iraq, the United States was unprepared for the Iraqi response, which was guerrilla resistance on a wide scale. The same was true in Afghanistan. Counterinsurgency is occupation warfare. It is the need to render a population -- rather than an army -- unwilling and incapable of resisting. It requires vast resources and large numbers of troops that outstrip the interest. Low-cost counter-insurgency with insufficient forces will always fail. Since the United States uses limited forces because it has to, counterinsurgency is the most dangerous kind of war for the United States. The idea has always been that the people prefer the U.S. occupation to the threats posed by their fellow countrymen and that the United States can protect those who genuinely do prefer the former. That may be the idea, but there is never enough U.S. force available.
>>
>>4800883

Agreed on most points. But "winning" in Afghanistan? They're just playing world police, it's not a war it's COIN. Arguably the same thing I guess but it's not total war and those farmers were fighting the Russians while the yank infantry were still in diapers. They won't stop fighting until foreign troops leave, it pretty much says that shit in the Koran(Quran?). If victory consists of trial and error for out how best to police a civilian population and quell rebellion I'd say victory is achievable because your just gathering information on how to manage an army in a certain way. But the Idea of victory in the traditional sense is impossible in COIN, bar genocide.

By having an unclear mission, you have an uncertain terminal point. When does it end? You then wind up with a political problem internationally -- having engaged in the war, you have allies inside and outside of the country that have fought with you and taken risks with you. Withdrawal leaves them exposed, and potential allies will be cautious in joining with you in another war. The political costs spiral and the decision to disengage is postponed. The United States winds up in the worst of all worlds. It terminates not on its own but when its position becomes untenable, as in Vietnam. This pyramids the political costs dramatically.

Wars need to be fought with ends that can be achieved by the forces available. Donald Rumsfeld once said, "You go to war with the Army you have. They're not the Army you might want or wish to have at a later time." I think that is a fundamental misunderstanding of war. You do not engage in war if the army you have is insufficient.

America will win and this is why:

Russian soldiers will be to drunk on vodka and busy having sex with transvestites.

Iran is to poor, stupid and smelly to fight.

China has no Navy so their army would get tired and drown trying to swim to America.

Defense of Western Europe against Warsaw Pact with plenty of support from the US navy. Every big strategist was certain that the war would go nuclear sooner or later anyway.
>>
>>4801621

Just because it's hard for the enemy doesn't mean it's not hard on you. Most Russian industrial bases are in the East where all the fucking people are. If an enemy force captures everything up to Muscovy, it's GG for Russia because the Russian military lacks the logistics needed to launch attacks from nonindustrial sites.

>>4801662

It was designed to be flown between theaters on C-5's and C-17's, not driven between them.

If they are going to be ground transported, they are usually loaded on to trucks or taken by rail.
>>
So, if we cannot occupy and bring freedom and prosperity to the enemy, the only option i see is to defeat their military and just bomb the whole country to shit, and then we will come back every other year for a re-run, to prevent their infrastructure from becoming a threat. Keep this up for a few decades until it's an integrated part of society and the last inhabitants of russia and china are dead.

as a fellow european you embarass me. russia and europe won't go to war again

also, have you got any idea how loaded with weapons usa's allies are around the world?

>>4792127

the idea is to take out china
>>
>>4801730

Which would be crippling in Russia because the Russian strategy centered around attacking and sabotaging the logistic lines of the invaders which tend to get overstreched and vulnerable due how vast the Russian territory is.
>>
>>4801632

AEGIS. You heard of it?

Missiles, even China's supposed 'anti aircraft carrier' missile, are insignificant threats to enemy submarines, which are insignificant threats to our submarines.

And keep in mind most of these long range missile defense systems are built on static instalations that will be target #1 from 1500 miles out with a cruise missile.
>>
>>4791712
I assume you're just trolling, but come on now, please. China doesn't have really good intercontinental missiles and they don't have a navy at all. How would they even begin to try attack the US? The only thing they have going for them involves superior ground power, which when you can't actually land on US soil..
Also, Russia raping Europe? Lolright. France and the UK both actually have ridiculous military and naval spending and Germany, as always, is a sleeping powerhouse.
gooby plz.

Russia is happy enough with its secret romance with Germany with little dwarf France looking with jealousy while the US lust with envy. No need to invade when Germany wants Russia integrated in Europe becuase they are sick of the US whinning that Germany don't do that much in their military adventures.

If global nuclear exchange occurred, WW3 would realistically last only around 4 to 5 hours. The resulting devastation would end further conflict.
>>
>>4801864

Not enough and you can't emply naval support because Russia's main population centers are far away from most ports.

Listen Ameribros, I know its a good feeling to hide behind 'lolbestmilitary we untouchable' but if the US was to start a war against all three of OP's mentioned nations, then she would be without a doubt well and truly fucked. If you seriously think Russia/China wouldn't rather nuke swathes of their own country and eventually yours if they were occupied ala Iraq/Afghanistan then you are truly deluded beyond anyone's ability to help. You have no money, no public will to go to war, and most importantly you were seriously tied up in tiny Iraq (and still in Afghanistan) with huge amounts of troops being stationed or rotated through both nations, and one country had no army while the other was a demoralised shambles, and the insurgencies are 2nd-tier to be honest. You couldn't go toe-to-toe with a power like Russia/China. Next time you want to have these shitty infantile fantasies/trolls please choose a more feasible target, like Vietnam.

I don't think you understood my post. I was saying that you can't go flying C-5's and C-17's around willy-nilly until you deal with the Russian Integrated Air Defense System. Even if you do manage to completely neutralize it, it's going to cost a lot of time and money.

even with these zilions of lollars spend on military? Oh, lol...
>>4800820
Yes, why indeed. One cannot win with Russia in conventional war - too much territory or China - too much people (vide Germany and Japan). on the other hand USA - too much potential for war industry and distance. Only option is unconventional war, but is there someone crazy enough to go nuclear... Still maybe USA didn't throw these zilions to toilet, they may have some surprises...
>>4801368
>with draft would be 50 million
remember Nazi Germany how many men they drafted? Did that helped them against Soviets? Imagine Russians with China's reserves instead... Only option is nukes or something new - there are anti missile lazors, aren't they?

Just because it would become tougher to crack doesn't mean it wouldn't crack like the Liberty Bell when Russia and Germany are rawdogging it from either end.

The point wouldn't be to stop it from cracking, it would be to get Germany and Russia to tire themselves out from the rawdogging. Which they will, because Poland will fight tooth and nail to stay independent.
