Take this to /pol/.
Russia was a serious conventional threat during the 70s.

checked. I'd say in terms of military strength WARPAC had the upper hand throughout most of the Cold War but fell behind during the mid-1980s.

Russias biggest weakness has always been russians pedilection towards oligarchy and cronyism.
It causes hilarious levels of corruption within any government they have had, and it has always severely limited them.
At the end of the day a russians chief concern isnt russia, or russians, no, a russian's main concern will always be himself.

I don't think so. I mean they definitely had a tactical advantage due to location in Europe during the 60s and 70s but they could never have silenced the U.S. and the American Navy was at a pretty serious advantage throughout the entire Cold War. The Yank had the Pacific on lock as well.
The US had a larger population, more morale, more reliable allies, better technology and technological infrastructure, more wealth, and a more diverse economy. It is also much less accessible than Europe. In a long term conventional war my bet goes to them.
That point is irrelevant though because things would have probably gone nuclear as soon as the first shots were fired and this is pretty much what everyone was banking on.

I'm legit proud of myself

I typically don't concern myself with foreign military history, but even I know how Japan bent Russia over and made it Japan's bitch.
Anybody have the one with 2D waifus, only if you get dubs you get TG'd, and you get bonus points with 0s?
That one is more fun

Slavs are peaceful and good natured by default.
Takes Crusaders, Mongols, Napoleon, Hitler for them to lock and load and kick ass. All in defence.
>>30049650
>kick ass
I think you're missing the point
>>30049667
I don't see any Teutonic Knights, Holden Hoards, Grand Amree, or Wehrmacht around... do you?

No one gives a fuck if you still lose in the end. Wars aren't a contest of k/d ratios.

Explain why russia is a 3rd world shithole while germany is an important industrial and economical powerhouse.
Besides you got absolutely fucked by estonian schooboys who were fighting a 2 front war.
Like cried and caved in when you almost lost one of your main cities annhalliated
To fucking estonians
>>30050450
The topic's about military power, not whether Russia knows how to develop an economy. Being able to hold off the massive Germany force in operation Barbarossa means quite the opposite of being a "weak country", at least for that period of time. Losing to Germany certainly wouldn't have made it any better for the current Russia.
>you got
So debating a part of that picture somehow makes me Russian? Are you fucking retarded?

I raise you pic related op
>>30050771
The pic is frankly, ridiculous . After these defeats Russia has subsequently won/conquered the territory of most of these opponents, including Japan, Germany (mentioned), Finland, Poland and Chechnya.
Also, Russia has never suffered a military defeat to the US.
>>30050813
The Cold War wasn't a direct military contest, but the Russians still lost when their country fell apart.
>>30050813
Cold war brah.
I don't care too much, Russia loses, we all win, they're basically Worf or your favorite respectable jobber. You would still rather they have your back than be against you.
>>30050813
Russia begged for an armistice with Germany and Finland, got spanked by countries with smaller militaries like Poland and Finland. They didnt win shit
