Whatever happens I think we can assume that a major revamp of the Army will be necessary - they need a complete change in tactics, organisation, doctrine and a lot of different kit. This will be forthcoming - it has to be for a country that has so much land

I'd expect that the other two branches will probably suffer - funding for new aircraft and new ships will be diverted to the army rebuild for quite a while - possibly 10 years
I sincerely hope the Russians follow every piece of your expert military advice. They'll be f****d for decades.
