I agree with nihonji. I find it funny that Chinese/Russian members on here keep talking about nuking Japan. Lol
Lets not be emotional bro. Our politicians arent stupid to know that a nuclear attack from any country will invite the wrath of the whole international community and yes in that case the U.S will intervene since nuking japan will be too much to ignore unlike ukraine situation. So there wont be any nuclear conflict just because of some little islands. It will all be conventional.
Japan has a large/powerful/advanced navy backed by the world's supreme power the U.S who is still seceral decades ahead of any country that comes second. So it will be difficult for Russia to defeat japan in sucj a scenario. However we never know until an actual war starts who will be the winner. Japan might look mightier than Russia, but they can still lose. Its not always about official naval might, but also strategy. For example Russias navy in 1905 was way more powerful than japan (on paper). But still they were completely wiped out by japan. In fact their fast defeat even surprised the west and japan itself.lol
I do understand that Chinese, Indian, vietnamese members might tend to favour Russia in their comments on here, giving their reliance in Russian soviet era weapons. But they should try and be realistic and stop talking about nuking japan since that wont happen.
By the way talking about Vietnam. I would like to know where my good vietnamese members stand on this. In the even of conflict between Russia and Japan who will Vietnam support?
Well said , my English buddy. We truly need to be pragmatic about the realities on the ground , and quite frankly all the chest thumping doesn't change that. Thankfully we can still talk in realistic terms here.
