Brit Reacts to What Would Happen If Russia and the US Went to War 

Yes, there are always subs in the Baltic and Med.

I was an IS decades ago. I can't say much but, what I can say is. America always knows where all enemy subs are. I mean always. They monitor ours as well. No other country is as good at tracking subs or keeping their subs hidden. Add to that the Russian sub that just visited Cuba. Reportedly had pieces falling off as it set sail for home. Then there's China. America has been using subs as far back as the Revolution. The first ever submersible was called the turtle. All that to say. America invented sub warfare and, have had more than 200 years to perfect it. As an American. Enemy subs should be of little concern to the public.

If a body of water could be host to hostiles, the US has a submarine there.

He's right about that, and these are just the ones we know about! Let that sink in for a bit.... 🤯🤫😎🇺🇲

Tha russian submarines are here also 3:44

Time to proportionally deal with them 😂

We literally created what is now the worlds largest and most well equipped (and arguably only) blue water Navy due to some asshat messing with our boats back in the early 1800's ... street cred right there!

Ukraine seems proportional to me 😂

Yeah we don't like that. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅

" Lost two destroyers..." "ooooooohhhh they touched the boats, thinks are about to get proportional."

In order for nato article V to be triggered the attack must happen on an Allied nations soil in either north America or Europe, so if French Guiana were to be invaded france couldn’t inflict article V as it’s not in North America or Europe same thing if Hawaii were to be attacked, although I’m sure our Allie’s would still help

Oh no Russia don't want Canada involved they would be wanting to get back to the Geneva Checklist.

@@carterpritchard5063 Hawaii is a US state... that would cause Article 5 to go into effect. For French Guiana I have no idea how that would work as that is a territory like Guam is to the US.

@@joesmith701 Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty provides for collective self-defense in the event of an attack on any NATO member state. Article 6 states that this agreement only applies to island territories of member nations in the North Atlantic and north of the Tropic of Cancer. Hawaii is south of the Tropic of Cancer.

@@carterpritchard5063 Hawaii is apart of the US so US would still be retaliating.

Thank you for your service

I hate to turn a video political but this? It's exactly why people need to vote for President Biden. The two major legislation acts are genius. Plus, he's the one who wanted to send weapons to Ukraine in 2014 when he was the VP. Obama turned his request down. (Because he was so incompetent with international affairs.) President Biden? Two major things: 1. The "Chips Act"? Moves chip production to US soil, creating jobs here in the tech industry. Fortifies our defense industry. Plus it has that nice salty coating of "Eff your Chinese chips" to it. 2. The "Infrastructure Program"? Oh yeah, we're making US jobs out of taking care of our own infrastructure and making it more reliant on renewable energy sources. So we're making US jobs via climate policies. We're making construction jobs out of the "climate crisis". That's a nice little, "Up yours, Russia, and the Middle East!" If those don't convince you, I don't know what will. Yes, he's 81. Big deal. He writes policies like an over idealistic 25 year old but with the skill of someone who has been in the game forever. That's statecraft on a rather epic level and I wish we'd talk about that because he actually deserves it.

All this can be avoided by electing a real president like Donald J. Trump because Russia knows not to mess around with him.

You should consider how much US manufacturing is now out of the reach of US law versus when the law was made. Might make you rethink this.

​@grippercrapper the act has been amended and updated multiple times since it was first created. It is still effective. It's been used this decade. As in, it's been used multiple times since 2020. It was used to make all those products to protect from COVID in 2020 and it was used in 2021 to help my state of California make more fire hoses to combat wildfires. It's been used for things beyond just military production to help US citizens. In the midst of a war, yes, it would still be effective. Most likely, it wouldn't even effect US citizens much at first, either.

Yeah this entire scenario is pretty absurd. War between nuclear powers is done in secret and through proxies. It's M.A.D. in action. No one really wants to risk nuclear war, so this is how things have settled. Also, congress hasn't declared war on anyone (including non-nuclear powers) in over 80 years. It ain't happenin'. Especially not with 15 US soldiers being (seemingly accidentally) killed in a foreign country where we know this kind of thing can happen. Not trying to get into conspiracy theory (I'd say this is probably _not_ the case), but there's a somewhat decent chance that we're already deployed in Ukraine. Either way, we ain't formally declaring war on Russia unless it's something extraordinarily egregious.

That's exactly the comparison I thought of when Imagining how this would go.

Desert Storm had 3 phases: Desert Shield, Desert Storm, Desert Sword. Shield was the build up of coalition forces in Saudi Arabia. Landing planes, building bases, deploying tanks and personelle. It lasted months. The US and allies flew regular missions along the border to let their radar see their flight patterns regularly. It was plenty of Time for Iraq to see what mes sof destruction was going to be visited upon them if they didn't pull out but the deadline. Again it was months of this. Desert Storm was the 6 week air campaign to destroy Iraq's command and control structure, air defense systems, any build up of tanks. It also include missile launches from Naval vessel, and stealth strikes from F117s. There are great videos going into the scale and complexity of the organized strikes. Desert Sword was the ground invasion to push any Iraqies soldiers out if Kuwait and "mop up" any potential for a counter attack into Kuwait. It took far less than a week. Desert Shield actually took so long the US could take the time to invent prototype and test the first bunker buster missiles made from the barrel of a howitzer. They made 4 in the original batch, the first 2 went to testing the next two tried to find Saddam in one of his bunkers. I ce Saddam learned the US had missiles to destroy his numerous air raid bunker deep underground he gave up.

@@TheZoenGaming I'm not familiar with that one but like it. Do you know it's origin or is it just to old?

@@riverlady982 I've not a clue to its origin. It's one of the sayings my great grandmother on the German side told me as a child. Strangely, my great grandfather on the Native American side had a similar saying, but involved unnamed "forces" rather than a beast. Because both great grandparents told it to me, I've always remembered it. Even today, at the age of 43, being six feet tall and weighing 225 pounds, I walk softly.

Yeah, Infographics definitely gave the Russians too much credit in that one. I don't see them, with their already strained logistical capabilities from the war on Ukraine and various sanctions they're under, being able to remotely contend with the expansive logistics network that is U.S. military infrastructure. When your country's military doctrine is all about power projection, that entails being able to mobilize rapidly and at scale. They also definitely overestimated total U.S. and Polish losses, clearly for the sake of argument, and again to either make drama or give Russia its best possible chance. I wouldn't be worried about any proposed short vulnerability window with China, either. Not just due to as you note, our ability to reform many of our industries into wartime economy, pushing weapons production, but also China still lacks a proper blue water navy to even attempt good power projection back at us. About how quickly we come together, back before World War II in 1939, the U.S. Navy had under 400 ships. By the peak our involvement in the war, there were over 7,000 ships in service. The merchant marine, responsible for the bulk of our logistics was able to build a new transport vessel within an astonishing 43 days. Which means that in the 6 year period from 1939 to 1935, there were an average of 3.2 naval vessels of varying type being constructed per DAY. All this said, with the current state of Russia, it doesn't look like we'd need a fraction of that much effort as compared to our standing military, and existing stockpiles.

@luistigerfox indeed. Further, many don't realize just how much we already have sitting around the world, for that exact scenario. We could take on multiple nations at once, just by using the bases nearest those nations. We have entire bases in some countries, just to stockpile weapons and vehicles. I definitely agree with your statement, that I think they fudged the numbers quite a bit, and I also suspect it had to do with giving Russia the best chance in the scenario. They can't deal with the stuff we've had on our shelves for decades, at one mom and pop store... and people think they can handle every store in the country? And somehow handle the full production lines we have to refill those stores? It's bonkers lol

@@luistigerfox I agree it was ridiculous how much credit they gave a Russia, a country that is second best military on their own continent. They cant even use their own aircraft fighter jets to protect their ground troops against Ukraine. They are losing a war in what is practically their back yard. Russian propaganda trolls have you believe with vodka they can do anything.

Biden voters have the blood of 500,000 dead Ukrainians and a large number of dead Russians on their hands.

Yeah but they have tried to keep the drafts small because they don't want to piss of the people too much. That's why it's a "special military operation". It's all about how they can spin it to make the people feel what the govt needs them to. Kinda like the orange man (close buddies with the russian govt). Using emotions and twisted presentations of fact or straight up lies to rile up their gun wielding supporters so that maybe they can overthrow the govt when they don't get their way.

World War II isn't the best comparison of what would happen in a war between just the U.S. and Russia, for starters, the U.S. was manufacturing tanks, planes, trucks, jeeps, artillery, ammunition, tents, uniforms, medical supplies and food for the U.K./commonwealth forces, U.S.S.R., the resistance groups across Europe, Australia, China, and our own military which the demand of surpassed our dedicated military factories capabilities to meet resulting in a need to convert civilian factories to wartime footings to meet our obligations with the lend-lease. If we are supplying just ourselves, we don't need to convert existing factories to a wartime footing as we do have dedicated factories capable of supplying our own military needs, that's why it wasn't mentioned in the video, it wouldn't come into play in such a scenario. We didn't do that in Korea, Vietnam, neither Gulf Wars or Afghanistan. World War II was a unique situation.

​@@Princess_Celestia_ but Korea. Vietnam and the gulf wars weren't directly vs another super power.

@@SwarmerGaming You could definitely say that about gulf war, but Vietnam and Korean Wars definitely were. In Korea UN forces fought China, and in the Vietnam war the north was heavily supplied and financed by China and Russia. Similar to the Ukraine war now but a bit flipped around.

@Xanthumb_Gumyou say that now til it does 😂

​@Xanthumb_Gumwhy wouldn't it matter any more? Trump used it just a few years ago lol

Exactly, also to add to your point, Russia has been using meatwave tactics for a year or so now. Also according to satellite pictures, Russia has lost 75% of their military power. They have about 25% of their military strength remaining.

Hey, that was really well explained! Just to add a little more info for Lewis, Article 5 of the NATO treaty is where that's officially stated.

hello WW2. why you think there is NATO?

​@@diegojines-us9pcLOL. Also, WWI. We really don't want to be a colony again. Every time I see a British person wondering why the US military is so advanced really doesn't understand our history. We joined WWI because we feared being split up among our former colonizers. NZ and Australia did the same thing. I think it's a Life magazine cover that shows the US carved up into foreign colonies. We were not about to give up then and we're just very adamant about that.

Well, they should. But nobody cares about America's borders. We're beginning not to care about anyone else's. Why should we? Especially when we're paying for 90% of it. We the people. The government does nothing to create wealth, they take it from we the people.

@@SlpBeauty333 we'll never give up.

Yeah but in this hypothetical it's biden and assuming a full response is necessary. So hypothetically this could be a version of events. Of course it's only speculation but given the disparities of the two sides, this is probably similar to reality overall.

If the numbers are even close to correct, Russia has lost 500,000 troops, and 75% of their military power. The military power is based on satellite pictures of Russian military bases. The video is outdated by this point, but Russia has been using meat wave tactics for over a year now. If America joins, the losses will be less then what the video would predict. We have a 24 hour response time anywhere in the world because of our military bases being located in every ally nation.

The US Navy also has the largest floating hospitals ever made that routinely go to disaster areas and render aid. USNS Mercy and Comfort have saved many lives.

And we can cut most of the world off from the internet with a flip of a switch

It was ALSO in the movie "Chicken Run" "Americans, overworked, oversexed, and over here!"

No, not just Putin, but Russia as a whole and Russians. And this is the Russian culture the Russian mentality. They have been doing this since World War 2. They sent meat wave after meat wave against the nazis The russian people have never cared about life

Presentation as what if not fact. If you believe everything you see on RU-vid as facts. You're part of the problem

it also kinda seems to ignore alot of current tech on both sides.

@@SargNickFury Agreed. America would still win, but we'd probably take a lot more casualties than portrayed. The question really is; Are we going scorched earth or are we going to try to fight it with our hands tied behind our backs like in the middle east.

Really? I thought😢what they was doing was taking statistics and presenting "case scenarios" (possibilities, for those without common sense) 🤦🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

So posted to video game board rooms.

Also if China attacked the US that would in fact trigger NATO's article 5. ( an attack against one Ally is considered as an attack against all Allies. )

But he's the first black woman to be president, how could he screw that up?

Peace time resupply would take 10 years. Using emergency powers to rapidly refill would still take months to years to retool factories and exorbitant cost. It's partly why the US war machine really started churning out massive amounts of materials after months to years after finally declaring war.

You can’t re-tool a factory instantly, just by throwing billions of dollars at it. It takes time. Money is not some magical wish generator.

Follow up to my own post. II Marine Expeditionary Force (MEF) A MEF is a combined arms force consisting of ground, air and logistics forces. It possesses the capability for projecting offensive combat power ashore while sustaining itself in combat without external assistance for a period of 60 days. With more than 47,000 Marines and Sailors, II MEF is representative of the largest and most powerful Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF). The MAGTF concept is flexible and scalable under single commander.

Getting troops and materials where they're needed around the globe when they are needed. The US is the only global superpower, it's the point of the bases dotted all around the world. Every other nation including Russia and China are regional superpowers, they can only attack and defend within their sphere if influence. The US military is designed to operate fully on two different fronts around the globe while defending American Soil. Basically we're like the Wayne Gretsky of military logistics: even if you just look at a large fraction of our stats we dominate everyone else's numbers.

The video is from a couple years ago before Russia revealed to the entire planet that their military is a joke. People still had the old USSR might in their minds when Russia started the war.

Really, its just theory, a theory full of holes. I'm from Switzerland and I'm just going to say this, dont, it ain't Russia you need to worry. Just from this theory, it's all BS, it's forgetting that China, NK and several others including Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Vietnam and others will be helping Russia. That's not a problem, US can deal with them too, but Russia ain't going to fight this war directly, we all know that, so the theory is already wrong. It's not the war they(China, NK and others) care about, its Europe and US economy, they are all sending aids to Russia, but the main goal is helping China and India, by prolonging the war. If you already understand what's the great risk, great, but if not, I'm just going to give hints, because it will take too long to explain, USD will drop in massive value to rebuilt their arsenal, buying more resources and techs, they will purchase more with US currency. That's where the domino effect starts. US dollar goes down, effects oil regardless if US can maintained the US currency, but it doesn't affect BRICS whatsoever as they don't use US currency for oil. Which will only impact US gold. And all hell will break lose, starts with NATO that would seek their own economy survival. Please understand, BRICS would help Russia as they will gain the same way they are gaining now, US has a lot of debt to CHINA. And NATO would backstab you to save themselves. Germany economy is still going down, it already affected 9 countries, Switzerland, France, UK, Austria, Poland, Italy(their growth is only temporary), Spain, Hungary and Romania. US and Russia war, only US loses, US stays out of it, US wins.

You might get a kick out of this. I have a certificate of competency in my wallet from 1979 that verifies that I can operate the SATCOM 100KW Mdl UD-24 Generator. I was a SSGT in the Tech Control Facility and the Satcom guys across the road needed 24/7 backup help if necessary. I never was needed.

We have some but the effectasy of these countermesures is theoretical, we have no idea what the Russian tech is for their most recent tech, they also have always had better espionage than America during the cold war and I suspect they still do in many ways, it wouldn't suprise me if they knew more about our ICBM tech than we know about theirs. In addition they had hypersonic missles that were tested and effective, I'm not sure if America caught up on that tech but the millitary heads were going crazy as that was the first time a forign power had surpassed our own technology lead in a significant way since WWII.

@@jaredgilmore3102 Weren't those same missiles also shown to be a farce since Ukraine? Legitimately asking. I remember them going on and on about hypersonic. They don't have hypersonic missiles. They barely have enough chips for the missiles they already had.

@@shingoku999999 The main problem is the lack of a test of the tech. The test is obvious to every country since it is intercontinental, thus unable to be classified, I have no doubt they are working on it but they are definitely behind, congress called military reasurchers and contractors in demanding answers as to why our enemies had tech we don't. This was a big deal in the aerospace industry. While I'm sure we have super cool tech that no one knows about, per sworn testimony we are years behind the Chinese and Russians on these missiles.

True, but I imagine most would want to help as they already are now with ukraine, so a lot of the supply chain issues just wouldn't be a thing.
