Losing? Lose to whom? Current events don't seem be anywere close. As
for
Russia? They have in the last year expanded their military activity.
They
are flying Bears again, opposed our missile defence plans, and Nato

You are one of those who believe in fair fights ?

it still won't be a fair fight.

If technical superiority will allow my country to prevail with fewer
