Could the Russians launch a ground invasion of Alaska once this underwater rail tunnel is finished?

>>64411911 (OP)
Not really. The tunnel would be collapsed if they tried.

>>64411911 (OP)
Why would the US ever agree to this? There's almost no economic benefit to it, and it would cost more than just about any other engineering project ever undertaken.

>>64411923
>it would cost more than just about any other engineering project ever undertaken

So you're saying it'll be the Trump Tunnel?

>>64411911 (OP)
Bitch there's no roads going out to that location. Closest one is from Teller to Nome and that doesn't even connect to the rest of the state. Is this one of those fabled "slide threads" I've heard about?

>>64411911 (OP)
they can't project power on their own border and you want them to travel across a single tunnel, or an amphibious assault?

Hi, Chang

>>64411983
do they pay you for post or for ascii character? lmao

Putin jiggling the keys to distract Trump.
If this ridiculous thing happens it will be yet another way for Trump to funnel government cash to himself.
But to address the question, the invasion would be "hybrid" with the Russians moving people into Alaska on pretense of supporting their investments to shift demographics.

>>64411971
We could ask China to lend us some of their "Shuiqiao" landing barges for delivering construction supplies there:

But why though?

Imagine the casualties from plowing a single armoured train down the tunnel.

Why? Their puppet will happily gift Alaska to them.

>>64412092
Maybe

Kek, I respect the ambition, but try pulling that off while under fire.

>>64412014
The best part is that he probably lives in the US

>>64411911 (OP)
>ground invasion of Alaska
Trump already offered him resources to stop the war in Ukraine from Alaska. If Russia asked, Trump would just give Alaska to him and call it a stunning victory because reasons.

So, what blew up now?

Cry harder, bitch.

>>64412365
I hear that the ukies took out some powergrids leading into moscow, but who the fuck even knows. Putin managed to sweet-talk Donnie out of Tomahawks so the Duma is probably still drunk

>>64412378
>Putin managed to sweet-talk Donnie out of Tomahawks
I don't even know why people believed he would give anything anyway. Ukraine certainly didn't which is why they've worked on making their own shit. Trump doesn't want to upset Putin and doesn't have the balls to do anything. He's kompromat.

>>64412099
how much of the crypto scam would vatniks need to buy to bribe the donnie dynasty for alaska?

>trump says

>>64411923
>Why would the US ever agree to this?
That is retarded land lubbers fantasies anyway.
Naval transportation is cheaper at these distances and regions. There is no sense in loading cargo containers in China and move them over land to the Bering Strait (over non existent railroad). When you can just load them into container ships and send them to the San Francisco.

>>64411911 (OP)
>Could the Russians launch
No, lol.

Yes. It would be unsuccessful, but they should do it anyway.

>>64411911 (OP)
You know how the Russians were threatening to retake Alaska back towards the beginning of the war and we just laughed it all off because of how fucking retarded the idea was. What if the madlads are actually planning on attempting a Gears of War E-Day in Alaska where they just burst out of the ground, blind-firing and throwing grenades in an unknown direction at an unknown target?

It's absolutely, inconceivably stupid, but since Zigger Law dictates that they will always pick the worst option available, this probably makes it more likely than an attack on the Baltics.

>>64412009
>>64412100
Since this involves Chinese drivers to remain calm and collected under periods of extreme stress and danger to themselves, I could see this becoming a complete disaster as they all try and drive off through it all at 100mph and barge each other off the way to save themselves.
I also expect their civilian instincts to kick in and they will murder all of the wounded out of hand during the disembarking process.

>>64411968
and never ever be finished.

>>64412365
Feodosia has stopped burning, with 22 out of it's 33 tanks destroyed, with more scorched. See Pic Rel.
There was a hit on the Veshkaima 500 kV substation in Ulyanovsk region overnight, which is a key node connecting the Urals and Central Russia energy systems. I'm not sure which section provides power to which though, so it could fuck with their industrial base in the Urals or it could case brown-outs in the places Russians actually care about.
There's also the ongoing fuel crisis and the daily explosions at various oil refineries and depots.

monke just humiliated himself openly in front of Azerbaijan by apologizing to them. That is a big no no and sign you are to be fucked in the ass in the wonderful world of homosexual prison gangsters he belongs to

All in the name of preventing a second front from opening up in the caucasus

If he is going to do anything it will definitely be small scale border attacks on the baltics. Discrediting and exposing natos dysfunctionality and all that. Especially since vatniks firmly believe balts themselves are completely toothless and easy prey like they believed that about ukranians pre 2022. Since balts made the mistake of letting in ziggers 80 years ago without fighting them off

Unlike those CGs, this one actually got built:>>64412100

>>64412646
It doesn't matter if it got built, it assumes the enemy is going to just let you pile up your giant landing barges unopposed. It's literally dahir insaat levels of idiocy, it getting built just adds to the hilarity.

>>64412645
Trump meets with Putin as with peer regualry. Is he wrong?

That doesn't make your asiatic dystopia a super power, you dumb moskal subhuman. Stop wasting people's time with your retardation and go join the SVO.

Yes. He doesn't realize that Putin/Russia aren't worthy to clean America's shoes, much less get a peer reception.

agent orange is a teenage girl in love with his idol and role model. That does not mean this is the objective reality. Claiming pozzia as a power of anything is like claiming trannies are real women

Russia hasn't been fully conquered by China yet, only vassalized. But don't you worry, eventually China will grow larger and it will border yet another country that hates it.

>>64412679
> t. outdated cheneese copium
You seem to miss that China-Russia relations greatly improved, because of common western pressure.
No, China will not save hohols,

>>64412652
It's faster to setup and more resistant to heavy sea states than conventional floating piers.
It's also not for the first wave and rather for to follow on forces once the beaches are secured for loading supplies and manpower for entire divisions for the ground war, the same way the Mulberry Harbours were used:

>>64412645
Why would they live like "nitwits"?

>>64412654
It's because trump is an easily impressed retard.

The tunnel is to invade Canada through Alaska. Not to invade Alaska

>>64412706

Anon, that tunnel is going to cost more than the entire Russia GDP.

I thought it was so that Barron could do rugpulls on /biz/tards?

>>64413090
That's the neat thing about Russia. You don't actually have to build the tunnel in order to embezzle the money. The Kuragino-Kyzyl rail line ran out of budget shortly after Putin laid down the ceremonial first spike. Construction was abandoned after less than 1km of track had been built.

>>64413151
That... that's actually a good point.

>>64413151
In a way you got to be impressed at just how truly corrupt Russia is.
I cant imagine what it must feel like to be a western firm trying to do business there

>>64412690
First wave instantly mulched, now all you have is this and an unpacified beach.
What does Xi do when the failures begin? The chinese way is to idiot charge anyway and die.

>>64411911 (OP)
I wish they would.
The US forces would even let several russian divisions make the crossing.
Then a squadron of B52 would flatten the entrance.
And CNN would broadcast live the comically gruesome attempt by the Russian Navy to supply/evacuate their starving comrades while the US Navy play the equivalent of a one-sided version of Battleship where your opponent has a mirror behind him and isn't allowed to call shots.

>>64413287

Yes. They would catastrophically lose and cease to exist as a nationstate for it, but they totally could try.

>>64413090
Not all bribes are monetary in nature. Plus, it's not like Trump is gonna be paying for the tunnel himself. That burden is gonna be on the taxpayer.

>>64413368
Surely you see the difference here. Now let's stop kvetching and bike to your second job to sew my new balances.

trump cancelled the needed tunnel connecting two states and he is going to float his idea? what a disgrace

>>64412099
>their puppet
LMAO, at this point it's closer to the other waqy around. Trump realised how much they hate the idea of Tomahawks in Ukraine, and now he's gonna blackmail the shit outta them with it.

>>64413442
What two states?

>>64413487
nj and new york gateway tunnel. would double penn station capacity from two tunnels to four, the project also included building new wider bridges which is already completed.
