As noted it was more than just numbers and specifically in both cases had to do with lack of proper planning, etc. And unlike Vietnam the US military initially had a single goal of winning a straight up fight with the nominal "military" in Iraq and Afghanistan but failed to follow through. Again...
Nah, have him go to South America to meet a predator MUCH more dangerous that he is :)
Depends on how the side develop I think, but if I was a betting man... I'd bet on that outcome :)

Late to the party as usual but this is in the news again with them gaining the 20,000 signatures needed to try and get a referendum on the ballot for moving forward. Frankly if they don't call it "Night City" I'm going to be very disappointed :)

Today WP forces entered Germany, stole all the beer, and then retreated back across the border. NATO forces are advancing trying to get ahead of the outraged civilian population. More updates as they come in...

Early RV's had "blunt body" (aka capsule with a broad base heat shield) shapes so they were slower than current "pointy end first" RV's. They were not however subsonic, still very much high supersonic.

We were told that most Soviet missiles (IR/SR) could be loaded with chemical weapons as well as possible fighter/bomber attacks.. In general we "played" somewhat harder than things would likely go in an actual conflict.
As noted there's no subsonic RV's and really air intercept with fighters...
