Hypothetically if the USA was invaded...

Hypothetically if the USA was invaded, what’s the furthest the enemy could push before getting bogged down or slaughtered. East, West, or Gulf are the points of entry for this.

Thousands of miles offshore?
There's really no scenario where the US resembles what it does now and some enemy is able to push through a Navy that outclasses the rest of the world to a laughable degree and still have the strength left to effectively invade us.

the east would be a nightmare. they'd never get to appalachia. the west is a whole different ball game. the gulf? dumb area to invade from.

The entire west coast would happily gape their assholes for any invading force, though once they reach the Idaho/Utah/Arizona line they get stopped hard.

The only actual credible "enemy personnel threatening CONUS" scenario is small teams of special troops infiltrating the border and running a sabotage + assassination campaign targeting important assets like staff officers and ship/air facilities. No large scale formation of troops would be able to openly touch down on US soil.

WTF does comfy mean now?

Then it's either an extraterrestrial invasion or literally every other nation on Planet Earth has dogpiled us. In such a case we're fucked not just as a nation but humanity in general is fucked as a species, because if the rest of the world has ganged up on us they're getting nuked and if aliens have invaded we're going to be exterminated like rats.

comfy is an aesthetic, not actually being comfortable.

I think the Gulf would be the only viable option for an invasion force unless they plan on allying with or attacking Canada or Mexico first. You need a staging base for the logistics requires and I think the only place this could happen is Cuba. Cuba is open to adversary powers and is a close staging point. So that assumes the invasion force lands in Florida and pushed up I95 towards DC

>Cuba is open to adversary powers and is a close staging point

How is the hypothetical adversary going to get to Cuba?

Realistically, quite a ways. The US isn't even a country any more. It has no uniting principle. Did you not see those people during the election chanting "no Trump, no wall, no USA at all!"? That's 50% of the population. The people who do value the US as a country are spread out and divided.
We're a paper tiger.

>what’s the furthest the enemy could push before getting bogged down or slaughtered
They could probably take and hold the coasts, but pushing further inland would prove to be futile.
There's no way in hell they could hold the middle states while also maintaining an open supply line.

In short, there's no significant reward in a long term invasion + occupation of the US.
The tremendous loss of life and massive amounts of resources required just wouldn't be worth it.

There's a reason Japan never invaded the US and the US never invaded Japan.
Germany tried and failed against Russia, Russia tried and successfully decimated Germany but suffered Pyrrhic victories along the way.
My point? To reiterate: It's just not worth it.

Ironically in this scenario, the fact that the central government is de facto no longer accountable to the citizens may be the saving grace.

Those people, while extremely obnoxious, do not make up the bulk of the US military. The people who do, I assure you, would give their left nut, right nut, and one inch from the base of their dick to have an enemy that they can kill freely and without restrictive RoE.

For guerrillas marching from Alberta to Mexico is the only viable route.

Let's crunch some numbers.

>USSR population 1940 = ~194,090,000
>Total USSR dead from enemy action including civilians, excluding things like famine and disease = ~20,600,000
>10% of 194,090,000 = 19,409,000
>19,409,000 < 20,600,000

Technically, the Germans decimated not just the Red Army, but the entire Soviet Union.

Realistically, Russia or China could probably take the entire West coast.

How are they going to get to Alaska? Did the Behring Sea Landbridge resurface recently?

they couldnt capture any of the states except alaska rhode island ot hawaii without major lossed or defeat

Depends on if they start on the east coast or west coast. East coast Id say Kentucky, Tennessee area would be where major push back occurs but they might make it all the way to Texas. If they start on the West coast then they easily take lands all the way to Texas and then begin to see push back. As far as a southern Invasion Id say they would hit major resistance in the gulf coast states.

The MidWest would bring about the greatest difficulty, that I can confidently would be a war of attrition that is unwinnable. There are too many firearms owners, and the majority of veterans have the midwest as there home.

Gaining a foothold on the coasts is easy in my mind, but the further you go into the central U.S. would be a problem. Especially with a likely insurgency on both coasts.

Like Russia, you should never attempt doing so against the U.S. We don't need firearms from the Federal Government, we have enough and ammo as private citizens. Not to mention 3 million modern combat vets that know how to keep the fight alive and going, not simply fighting, but know the logistics that are required. And that is if the any outside nation could sweep away the largest Air Force and Navy that exists in the modern world. The 2nd largest Air Force that exists is the U.S. Navy.

Invading the U.S. is most akin to fighting in Afghanistan. We are a proud people with sizable ground and resources, with near 400+ people with half the world's total firearms. Did Iraq, and the guy with a small-arm is just as much as threat as the man with a plan.

Realistically, we are not conquerable. In less you are willing to take on obscene numbers of casualties.

Dunno about the east or gulf coasts, west coast is a no-go due to geography. The only suitable beaches for landing all lead into the LA basin. The only viable exits from there are north or east. Either one could be sealed and held by a battalion or so. Meanwhile, the invaders are bogged down in 10 million pissed off Los Angelenos. It would make the Battle of Mogadishu look like a boy scout jamboree.

I think a global nuclear apocalypse or alien invasion scenario would be far more entertaining and fun than the millionth thread of Yuro/Russia/China wank about invading America because they stipulated that their laughable logistics aren't to be considered.

That’s the most amazingly retarded scenario I’ve ever seen in one of these threads. Face it, Chang, you guys suck at warfare. Recycling the Tet Offensive isn’t going to make it work any better this time. Quit trying to be a strategist, and get back to making shower shoes for the developed countries.

>Gaining a foothold on the coasts is easy in my mind
>accompanied by that picture
Nigga wat? There is no nation or coalition of nations that can contest our navy. Also the 2nd and 3rd best navies, the UK and Japan are our two closest allies. For the USN to be defeated in such a way that our shores can even be touched, our enemy, whoever that is, would have to escalate to using nuclear weapons. After that, you aren't talking about invasion anymore.

The enemy was never stated. Just post about a fake invasion. Not what stops it

Something something hypersonic quantum plasma sheathed something burgerfats btfo.

That actually is not 100% true. There are areas that would put up a decent resistance. How ever I'd say quite a large bit of the west coast would not resist.

The USN would be more than able to control the relatively limited paths of access to the Gulf of Mexico.

they'd glass/occupy the big coastal cities and probably be satisfied to let the "flyovers" do whatever the fuck we want like man in the high castle

Huge swaths of the country are completely fucking empty, and entirely wilderness. It’s truly wonderful.

Meant it would be the easiest of such a campaign. Our greatest defense is the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, they always have been.China has been a near peer for sometime, and more than that they know our weaknesses. First thing to go in WW3 would be our satellites, communication and command would severely hindered ability to react such an act. We'll likely do the same, but it doesn't really make us better off.

The first hour will be the defining hour, and all the rest gives momentum to whoever wins in that critical piece of time.

A push from south to north up the eastern seaboard would be insane, you're running into progressively heavier populated areas while leaving your west flank open to the entire rest of the country plus having to fight reinforcements flooding south from the massive number of bases along the east.

I understand your reasoning but China is decades off from being able to deliver troops to a hostile shore. They may be cranking out destroyers (of questionable capability) at an impressive rate, but their navy has a minuscule range and basically no ability to project. They are a ways off from being a blue water navy. Whether the US keeps its satellites and comms is irrelevant to that fact. Remember, the Pacific ocean covers nearly half the planet. China doesn't have the range to move anything that far, even if it was uncontested. You'd have to use teleport cheats to get hostile troops to either American coast, and that's before considering all the alliances we have.

This. I'll gladly help who ever invades. Fick Seattle.

The biggest threat to the US in the event of an enemy invasion will probably be Americans. There are too many people and groups here in nu-America who would not even consider coexisting with each other if it weren't for the strong rule of law, and we have a decent sized and probably growing fifth column all ready to go no matter who the invader ends up being. I love this country and respect its founding principles, but as it is now any serious challenge would probably make it shatter.

I doubt that. In fact I'd wager an invasion would cause all of the U.S. to unite into levels of autism never before seen again. Imagine hwndu but all of the United States involved and focused on one target. It would be a nightmare for any invading force

>children of first agents in US military ready to strike
Just as with pretty much every other second generation of an immigrant family, those children would most likely become patriotic Americans. They'd much more likely be on the side of their country (USA) defending it from invaders than for their parent's home country.

These desu, America's greatest threats are by far internal. If the USA falls, it will be to political not military maneuvering.

It very likely will become a contest in the area of Total War, sooner or later. Both parties are preparing for as much.
You are right, current experts don't even say the PLA has the ability to conquer Taiwan with their present capabilities. And if they can't conquer Taiwan, we would be a whole other problem.

Worst thing we did in Iraq was underestimating the capabilities of our foes. It is better to look at them objectively than to assume you have superiority of force on the level of deployed forces..We are an international Navy, deployed across a myriad of regions, China is not.

Some people maybe, but don't forget that we are rapidly approaching a situation where the majority of the country belongs to one resentful minority or another, and extreme political factions from both wings are becoming more and more influential despite the government's attempts to suppress them. Even without ethnic or ideological loyalty to consider there would still be plenty of opportunists who are after power or shekels, or just want to loot, or traitors who hate the USA on principle.

You are focusing on factors of race rather than weapon systems, which has no legitimate belonging on Jow Forums. Go back to where you belong, where your comment is on-topic. It isn't here.

Depends on if America stays whole and counter attacks like in the case of 9/11 or if it completely collapses and devolves into pseudo-militia skirmishes with occupying invaders. In the former everyone unites because at the end of the day its not their skin in the game and they can show off their patriotism by posing with cheap flags. In the later it turns into gangs, maybe not in all out war with eachother but the end result will be closer to balkanization than any sort of unification. We have barrios, ghettos and chinatowns as it is because despite all the "melting pot" memes America has always been divided, it took an influx of non-europeans to be different enough that the wops and bog-trotters became familiar enough to integrate. If the govt collapses the different ethnic groups, which already live in communities divided along those lines, will look after their own forming loose alliances at best with neighboring communities.

The south would be hell for an invading army. There would be about 67.37 kajillion guns owned by citizens per square centimeter, and the invading army would most likely not be used to the absolute hell on Earth that is the climate of the south. Imagine some chink or russian trying to march 15 miles in 95 degree weather with 80% humidity while in full gear.

>implying Los Angelos wouldnt welcome an invading force with open arms.

This, but honestly we should give LA to Mexico anyway. It's such a shithole.

>welcome
sure, for a very short time. As soon as they realize that the Chinese are actually going to start treating them the out-of-control niggers that they are, instead of the kid gloves the US treats them with, that's gonna change very quick.

What he said absolutely applies to this discussion. Understanding the country you're invading's population and where their loyalties lie is military invasion tactics 101.

Naval landings on the Oregon coast are ill advised. What's not rock is shallow sandbars that shift location frequently. The Columbia River has forts guarding the mouth, I'd say Seattle would be the landing point.
