Global firepower turns up some interesting numbers, but seems to me the US comes out ahead. US is rated number one at Global Firepower.

Again, Russia has no blue water navy and zero force projection. If Russia wanted to take Florida or any part of the US it would be nearly impossible, where as the US could have boots on the ground in Ukraine in twenty-four hours.

If you have any more info on the current state of Russian's military I would love to read about it.
Russia has modernized it's military with heavy hand, believe me. And this is not just about US, there other fucking countries out there too, you know. That blue water shit doesn't relieve much here in Europe. I don't live in USA. And Russia has blue water navy, small it may be.
