Since we have global reach I am sure just about every country has at least a rough draft of an anti-US plan of operations.

Russia's nuclear posture statements of today are very similar to NATO's from the 1960-70s, when we thought that the Godless Atheistic Communist Horde would simply overrun Western Europe in a conventional war.

In other words...Russia thinks that they're the weaker player in this scenario.

Predictably, if the US / Western strategy were to factor in your point of view, it would lead to disarmament, lack of preparation and lower geostrategic capability. I now have an algorithm. Here is is: If [concern about Russia/PRC/Trans-Eurasian Axis threat to the West] then [Poohbah will downplay and discount]. Whose side is Poohbah on?
