FACT: Russian spending is way up as they modernize their weapons systems and develop new ones which are extremely hard to defeat.
You think it's a great idea for the US to put 150 tanks near the russian border. I think it's a horrible idea based on the facts.
If we had a president who respected our military and loved the country I'd think different.
Fact, you're lack of knowledge is leading you to make conclusions that aren't accurate.
The United States is still easily the most powerful in the world, and Russia's build up isn't going as well as they would like, and has not transformed their military. As they still depend on poorly trained and equipped 1 year draftees , and a few better trained, better modernized and equipped, but small, elite units, in an Army that some experts think is as little as about 250,000, and the structure of that Army is not like the old Soviet forces, built for attack, instead it lacks the capabilities for large invasions, and sustained combat, and Russia cannot pull their forces from the greater threats of secession internally and the Eastern border.
That is why you need to read the current situation as described in post 15.
