wow...2 guys who think they know everything....Osman, back to xtratime with your ass
I do happen to know about the Soviets, obviously neither one of you brain surgeons know what the hell you're talking about-
The USSR, during the early to mid 1980's had 4 times as many ground weapons (tanks, soldiers etc) then the USA and all of Europe.....Russia was the most dominant force in the world when it came to a ground war...their sure masses would have beaten anyone
As far as their Air superiority, they had MiG's and Sukhoi jets that could closely match our F-15's and 16's, and their pilots were as proficient as ours
And now to the nitty gritty....the USSR had/has enough short range nuclear missiles to wipe out all of Europe, and they still have hundreds of ICBM's (Inter-Continental Ballistic Missiles) that are aimed at several US cities
Now, if we go with Seven's theory that he concocted from reading a few books, and most of their missiles are faulty, we have to keep in mind that it would only take one of those hundreds of missiles to actually work properly, and it would be a pretty bad day here in the USA
I seriously doubt thats the case....I'm sure they had some problems with missile maitenance, but it wouldnt take many to achieve their goal.
And Osman, you wealth of intelligence, remember that things started to go downhill for the Soviets when Reagan challenged them in the arms race, knowing that the USSR would eventually run out of funds, which worked perfectly
Right now, Putin has a new nuclear missile that can fly under radar at 500 feet, that can travel at Mach 2 (twice the speed of sound), which the USA doesnt have the technology (yet) to replicate
Hopefully, Russia will test fire it into Osman's house
