Oh no! Another mistake. Military spending is never a determinant of who will win a war. Strategy, technologgy and balls wins wars not wastiing tax payers money like the US does.

abeg tell am jare. The Russian navy fired 24 Kalibr missiles all the way from the Caspian sea while passing through Iraq and Iran enroute Syria all hitting their target with pinpoint accuracy... The US of A is not the only Sheriff in town...

McTobe:
take a look at this comparative analysis of US and Russia fighters. Sukhoi Su-27
The first on the list is Sukhoi Su-27
(NATO reporting name “Flanker”), an
exceptionally maneuverable
machine, one of the most agile
aircraft ever built. It is an extremely
nimble jet, which can be controlled
even at very low speeds and high
angles of attack. A Cobra
(Pugachev’s Cobra) – briefly
sustained level flight at a 120° angle
of attack – is a dramatic and very
demanding maneuver usually
demonstrated by Su-27
during airshows.

ISIS is not a conventional army, It requires tactics to defeat. And Russia aren't fighting Ukrainians directly, It is somewhat like a proxy war. Even Ukrainians know their country would be history in a war with Russia. Let's even stop abusing that word "WAR", It wouldn't be a war as Ukraine would be overrun by Russia in hours. During the war between Communist North Vietnam and South Vietnam why didn't the US bury supposed enemy North Vietnam? Russia are only weeks into the Syria war and they are making considerable progress.

Nice post.

A lot of them don't know that over half of the US' military budget goes to the unnecessary bases that can easily be destroyed all over the world. And once you take that away compare the product cost of US hardware vis-a-vis Russian hardware - both countries spend almost the same amount on military budget.

Also, for all those bases - Russia has more than enough capabilities to destroy all of them, including the scrap metals a la aircraft carriers within 24 hours, without leaving Russia. Hence they invest a lot in ICBMs and medium range missiles. And in a war between the two - whoever wins continental Europe and Euroasia, should have the upper hand. A lot of these folks are just ignorant and there's no point wasting time on them.

I see you know a lot about military. Have you seen the Russian TOS-1 flame thrower? Darn!! That's one bad arse hardware. If Nigeria can lay hands on four of that - Boko Haram should be dead in a month.

yes you are right and i agreed with some point but please Russian campaign in Syria is not a strong factor bro. United state used indirect and diplomatic approach to fight the ISIS and United states was never serious serious about defeating the terrorist in Syria. I am not saying this to undermine Russian's effort, yes they really tried and I am in full support of what Russia did. But one thing that I want to tell you is that If America had the intention of wiping off Isis, they would have done that since but America is unwilling to fight who they are funding

CSTR2:
A US military base can easily be destroyed?
Who would even dare? Even china with America soldiers in her backyard is scared like a kitten.

Dude, most of u just read about specs and articles online, u know nothing about the art of war. So Russia would just send a missile and blow US base in Germany and d Germans would smile and give Putin a pat on the back ... They'll do dsame to the ones in Japan and the Japanese would smile and say "it's alright"... Same goes the ones in Greece, Isreal, Bulgaria, Portugal, Spain, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, UK right?...or I bet ur Putin can defeat all these countries combined.

I do not agree with u... In unconventional warfare, there's usually no winner. Atleast, it's been like that so far. You can only hammer them to a bearable minimum, but they always come back. Taliban is still there, Alshabab is there, Alqaeda is there, Boko is there (despite the 2009 public executions and other govt efforts), ISIS will still remain. Let Russia bomb from now to 2035, they'll keep recruiting. You can't kill an army with no nation, no flag, no identity and no uniform. Let's just pray they find a different calling...lol.

Honestly, all these talks on nukes between Russia and USA is just war fantasy.

On deployment, Russia deployed aircrafts and carriers that weren't detected by Western radar. What does that tell you? I trust the silence of the Russians more than the ranting and propaganda of my betters in the US of A.

No one could believe frigates 1/3 the size of their USA counterpart could fire those cruise missiles over 1,500km by the Russians. No one knew of its existence. If na America, we for don see am for YouTube since and CNN.

I love threads with the word Russia on it in NL.

Rotimi47:
The only edge America have is allies which she have in large numbers but also note that the Russians also have her own allies.

speedyGonzales:
dude, I get it you support Russia. I support neither country, I don't want them fighting at all.

but having just finished a course in the UK on satellite systems, where our Prof, analysed the infrastructure in place by the US (for instance the GPS, we use today was developed by American defence budget, and some of the capabilities are hidden from civilians). the US has military bases across the world, each fitted with satellite monitoring stations. an standing army on every continent (I think except Africa) and compared with other countries, the only country that can compete is France, but china is slowly joining. in conventional war, with just guns, then anyone could win. but with technological capabilities, this satellite technology naturally intersects with military and we analysed every country (admittedly Russia is more secretive about their capabilities than the US), but US is way out in front.

Everyone including america is afraid of Nuclear weapons and Nuclear war! because it could lead to an apocalypse

The Prof that taught (consults in satellite development project for across the world) told a story on the top of the range satellite that Yar adua wanted to buy from a UK company but the UK government blocked the sell, because it was the latest in satellite technology for defence.

idupaul:
Don't worry we plenty here already

mazeltov:
you are a war novice. There are thousands of missile that have ranges that is more than 1500km

Shymm3x:
Did I post to you and how many times am I going to tell you illiterate monkeys to keep ya illiteracy off my posts? You think war is fought on paper and running around like a rabid monkey? And you think countries will compromise their own national security to protect a next country's military bases? M0ron.

You are better off spending more time on ya English proficiency than trying to trifle a trifle with those above you. Do that and fvck off my mentions. Clown.

Rotimi47:
You're the super novice, one is talking about cruise missiles and you're talking generally about all missiles. Na wa for some people.
You know nothing about weapons or weapon platforms, let me state that the missile with the longest range in the world is owned by Russia.

Missy89:
Who are the allies of Russia?

Rotimi47:
The only edge America have is allies which she have in large numbers but also note that the Russians also have her own allies, so if a war breaks out between the united States and Russia, it will quickly turn to a world war which will also go nuclear as any party that is taken more casualties will simply go nuclear.

Don't forget that Russia also have allies all over the world.

Russia will rather fight ISIS ( with thousands of Chechen and dagestanis) in Syria than fight them in the caucasus. I am pretty sure they know it is unwinnable but moving the frontline is more beneficial

Mcbussy:
Dude u know nothing abeg... Even ur response shows ur just a street urchin that can't maintain a simple logical argument. I can't remember using any derogatory word on u and here you are calling urself an illiterate and a slowpoke. Just read ur post and ask urself who's d illiterate between d 2 of us.

Well, you can spit fire...I'm still going to insist that not even Russia can just launch missiles into a country's territory all in d name of blowing up US base without sparking a war....it's common sense. Thank God Putin isn't a keyboard war professor like some nairaland clowns.

BALLOSKI:
China, Iran, lebanon, and many that have fallen off with the US.

Missy89:
Do you know that the Pugachev’s Cobra maneuver is theoretical and has never been used in combat ?. It is only good for making the audience clap at airshows.
