Born Hunter 17,751 Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 I can't see an Iraq style invasion on the books. I don't think there is the appetite for it. The China situation worries me more than Iran. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Crippling Iran's military capability would be a weekend training exercise for the USAF and Navy. I think even that would be a bit strong though. They'll maybe kick them out of the seas and heavily police Iranian shipping to protect international shipping lanes? The Chinese though are probably ten or twenty years away from seriously challenging for dominance in the East. Hypersonic and ballistic carrier killing missiles could well put the US Navy out of the game. It's interesting watching it develop.

All the gear and no ideal, the only war America has been involved in fully from the start was Vietnam, and realistically I would be unable to award them a clean sweep and an outright victory, it’s ok having the biggest bomb but sometimes people’s resolve wins the day, as stated America Vietnam, Russia Afghanistan as two examples, 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
THE STIFFMEISTER 15,752 Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Warfare has moved on leaps and bounds since 5 years ago even. As for no idea...I’d say that’s a fairly ironic statement to make have you any idea how these invasions work ?

People far cleverer than you or I plan these things Mate your a serving soldier and I strongly disagree with warfare full stop, so I won’t get into to heavy a debate with you as it’s to much of a raw wound for many, and people that have faced it and lost brothers doing so have far more rights to moan and vent than I do, and I would not wish to offend any of them but I will just say that every serving soldier I no has more fear of being killed by the yanks than the enemy when on joint ops and you will never hear a government complain that they can’t fund arms when hospitals are creaking and cracking under the stain, conclusion war benefits the rich at the expense of the poor, something that has always niggled me and maybe you or someone else with greater knowledge can help to explain, is why did the Bank of England fund Adolfo hitler until 1945 when the war stopped ??? Makes suspicious people like me even more suspicious sorry I’m off for the weekend so won’t be able to relply for a few days 4 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
