America. We have the largest, most advanced fleet in the world, by a huge margin. Control of the seas = victory.

lol? Russia has more ties to china than the United States
When anybody preaches disunity, tries to pit one of us against each other through class warfare, race hatred, or religious intolerance, you know that person seeks to rob us of our freedom and destroy our very lives.

Russo-American alliance. China imports a majority of its oil from the middle east, by ship. It would take the US navy about twenty minutes to shut that down. Horses and mules against tanks ought to be entertaining. (http://www.iags.org/china.htm)

Also, China doesn't have a particularly large missile arsenal, and most of their older ones are liquid fueled. So the US at least would only suffer...very badly. Granted my source is rather old, but still, twenty ICBMs isn't much vs the US or Russian arsenals.(http://www.spacedaily.com/reports/China ... l_999.html)

I don't think China's deterrence is large enough to cope with an American-Russian first strike. But I could be wrong.

I'm pretty sure it'll never happen...although if China ever develops a credible anti-ICBM deterrent, you can expect a Chinese invasion of Russia on or about the following Tuesday.

Only if you tell us why Russia would side with China, and what the war's over.


Because they wouldn't side with the USA, and China would be a strategic advantage militarily, economically, geographically. They won't have to fight a war on their border. and instead fight over seas.


Don't Russia and China still hold some animosity towards each other?


I doubt more than they have towards the us.


They had a real war. US and Russia never did.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sino-Sovie ... r_conflict


So?

Just because countries have had past military conflicts, doesn't mean they will not make future pacts.

All I'm saying is Russia would most likely side with China if a conflict between the US ever occurs, because they probably don't want to fight another border war. China would also be a good supplier.

Stop saying "we", you didn't participate in those wars thus there is no "we fought proxy wars".

Stop using slavespeak, you are an individual and together with other individuals you make up a group of people refered to as "Americans", the united States is nothing more then a group of individuals that have something in common, but that doesn't mean that just because certain "Americans" fought in certain wars you can speak of "We fought in proxy wars", because after all - you didn't participate in those wars, some indiviiduals did in the past and they happend to be Americans, but just because they were American doesn not mean you can take credit for something you did not participate in.

Also, since when has the U.S. become biological borg collective?

It would be severly close, NEVER fight a land war in Asia, the loses would be massive and it would most likely escalate to A Nuclear War, it would be a completely pointless war, No one would win, all 3 if the survived would probably be hated by the rest of the world, also such a war would cause other nations to get involved in this case it would be a 3rd World war, The US is an empire And its are already started to have issues with staying stable, All empires fall eventually and unfortunently the US probably will eventually.

Seeing as how the US has the best air force in the world hand's down, I figured using them over their Russian counter parts would be a better choice. I also said "mostly", meaning a majority of the operations are done by the US, but this does not mean all of them.
