Your right, our air power would crush anything that moves, unfortunately even our military has not designed a better weapon than the GI. Anyway you look at it if Iraq invades or trys anything with their military it will not end until American ground troops take it house by house. Even in Afghanistan we needed the Northern Alliance on the ground to take back the country and those special forces men to guide those bombs. Then those ground troops are vulnerable to all those weapons that you seem not to care if he has.

So, production stays the same, but demand increases several fold and that doesn't cause a shortage?
