Russian Warships Enter Syrian Waters To Prevent NATO Attack

It means you don't fuck with Syria if Russia won't allow you to.

Nice graph, it leaves out the effectiveness of the weapons, accuracy and what kind they are, Russia used large quantities because they had inferior systems to the USA. Russia knew they had inferior systems which is why they fought so hard to have the US's PEACEKEEPER ICBM decommissioned with the salt treaty.

Russia won't start a nuclear war with the USA over a shit hole like Syria, its just more political bolstering from Putin because the Russian elections are coming up, that small contingent of Russian ships would never attack the US Navy.

and US Navy will never attack Russians. In the situation about Syria, if Westerners decide to attack Syria they will attack and Russia wil not respond. So, all this about Syria + Russia ships is a stupid bullshit. Just a some sort of diplomacy.

US Navy will never attack Russians.

You know that, and I know that, but there are some posters here who seem to WANT it to happen.

Sort an apocalyptic wet dream.

Most don't want it to happen, and most know it won't. This is just Putin playing Soviet style political chicken because of upcoming elections.

Let them dream. On Russian gunforums all this (Russian fleet is going to Syria) was perceived like full bulshit in the best case. Yes, several complexes S-400/Triumth SOLD to Syria could close the porblem (NATO would overcome this but with very serious losses, they wouldnt begin). But Americans just asked ours (about 1-2 years ago) not to sell there even S-300 Game is over.

yes, the current Russian mood is quite different from the mood in Corbachev times (Westerners were perceived almost like gods but now...)
