NATO vs Russia in a war who would be superior?

[Rumata]

What are you talking about?

I mean any kind of an underwater blast strong enough to create a wave able to destroy coastal regions of USA or China is potentially very harmful for these countries which have many big cities on the coast.

NATO any day, but Russia vs numerous countries is not fair. But Russia and China imo is ez win for them.
The one country I believe in insane capabilities is China, insane manpower, most advanced military systems imo.

The US has the most advanced systems although China has been stealing their technology for decades.

In a war between NATO and Russia, Posadists win.

Nato. I poured all my vodka down the drain and put down my Russian cat, rip Jakov. I was also wearing 3 masks (made in China) and blue and yellow pin (also made in China) at the time. We need to support the middle class

Considering the performance of the Russian army in Ukraine so far, I think in a conventional war Russia would be trounced, as long as NATO is not caught by surprise, which is very unlikely. The Russian build-up against Ukraine took months and was detected very early by Western intelligence. But... Russia has the biggest nuclear arsenal in the world, and a false move or somebody getting unhinged up the chains of command could mean both sides would lose, and badly. China could well emerge the "victor" without fighting a shot.

The theory of catastrophic tsunamis caused by underwater nuclear weapons has been debunked by military experts. Those nuclear weapons would be more effective directly employed on cities. Both Russia and the US have more than enough weapons to reduce their respective big cities in cinder without tsunamis.

A tsunami caused by a nuclear weapon is clearly science-fiction. You have no idea of the energy needed only to produce a "regular" tsunami...

N.B : It is hundred times more than the most powerful nuclear weapon ever tested (Tsar Bomba).

You went the extra mile. Who knew that Lindsey Graham posted here?

Without nuclear weapons involved, NATO would win easily.

Until recently I thought that Russia had a great military potential, but I see that they continue with the same doctrine as in the first phases of the cold war.

Russia would lose roundily.
