    Default Who would win in a war between the USA and a China/Russia/North Korea coalition

    Let us say this war springs up over North Korean aggression going too far. If the USA ended its wars in Iraq and Afghanistan right now, and both sides committed all of their assets to the war, who would win?

    Both sides refrain from nuclear weapons until the very end when a decisive victory hasn't been reached.

    The war is fought in North Korea and eastern China.

    Also to be clear this is a TOTAL WAR, no complaints about civilian casualties and such.

    So this is an RED war of aggression?

    Collation.

    Russia brings the tanks and nukes, China brings the men. North Korea brings propaganda.

    The US would be overwhelmed.

    If this was a total war then neither side would win considering everything would be hot by nuclear weapons. Also if that coalition when to war wiht the US, the US would have some allies wiht them like South Korea, Great Britan, Japan, Thailand, and the Phillipienes.

    China just needs to ask USA debt back.
    Imagine what Russian-Chinese-North Korean alliance would be able to do.

    Given the countries involved the average dick size would be larger in the US, therefore the US would win.

    This is a war fought on Chinese soil - the Chinese are going to come off worse than the US. Also the US navy is pretty damn awesome, and currently could hold the coalition off indefinitely.

    This is somewhat similar to the EU vs US debate though - the coalition would never win if the US decided to blockade them in instantly. However, if the coalition built their militaries up for 10 years or so it could become a much more even battle.

    If it was no nukes, then the Russians, Chinese, and Koreans, easily. It's fought on Korean/Chinese soil, with the Americans not only having to hold and expand a defensive line, but having to keep supplied and having to keep the locals in line. It would make Operation Barbarossa look like a cakewalk.

    Yeah, but Fred you do realise that the US would just scorch the land that they were losing if they weren't bothered about civilians? The coalition would be screwed over for the future, and would probably end up losing a lot of their industry/agricultural land. Thus the US comes off better at the end of the conflict.

    But yeah, you're right - they'd never be able to hold their land in China.

    Why is Russia included in this? I thought they hated China and especially North Korea these days.

    Would be a tie, in that South Korea would be taken and American attempts at invasion repelled, while at the same time the "coalition" would lack the power to invade the USA.

    It's a hypothetical situation. Plus the OP is probably just doing it for a bit of Cold War nostalgia

    Why is North korea in this, they're a paper tiger of an army. They run around with t-34s and and people expect them to put up any sort of fight to a properly armed nation?

    Assuming no nukes.

    USA easily.
    I mean, the US navy is more powerful than the rest of the world's navies combined. The Chinese, Russians, and North Koreans would always have to be on the defensive.

    Even if somehow the US navy dissapeared, the link of Ryuku islands, Japan and Taiwan would allow for a blockade of China.
    Then you have all of NATO going ballistic on Russia.

    South Korea and Poland would be the main areas of contention. The US, Japan, and South Korea would all mobilize their forces and probably direct them into South Korea, where they would be able to repel a North Korean + Chinese invasion. Simply due to one simple thing.
