Play your strengths against your enemy's weakness. Never let him fight the battle his way. Make him fight your way. That is how you win a war, that is why Iraq and Afghanistan aren't going so well. That is why Vietnam was lost.
Anyhoo, this is about very real conflict in Georgia. Not a hypothetical one between the US and Russia

Your right, bad habit of mine, but do you really think the Russians don't know the weaknesses of our armed forces and vice versa, are air forces may be hot shit till they get knocked out of the sky by S.A.M.'s, and as for the navy, thought that the Russians may lack in ship power ( 1 aircraft carrier rusting at port) but they also outnumber us with Subs
The way I see it, the only way to invaded Russia is to send end the 82nd and 101 first airborne to weakend their defense line of there coastal waters and take advantage of are navy and storm the beaches of Russia on the west coast, if the navy don't get torpedoed, I could continue but I wait for your response
