The Allies also had complete air and naval superiority in the relevant

count on none of the three. For all that the US Army and Marines are
bogged down in Iraq by a bunch of dudes with IEDs, the ability of the
USN to sink ships and the USAF to shoot down airplanes is still
astounding large.

China grows richer and more powerful every day compared
to the U.S.. Unless trade or monetary policies change, it
is only a matter of time until it surpasses the U.S. in both
economic and military power. Then the USN and USAF
would have to contemplate a foe with more and better
subs and ships and aircraft and missiles. Like the Allies
at Normandy, China will win the fight long before it actually
attacks. Remember how small and poorly outfitted the
U.S. military was just three or four years before Normandy?
