    I get the jokes about France. We say the same thing about them in the U.S. And it's not like there haven't been a few instances where they have given up rather easily. But France actually has an *excellent* military. One of the best in the world. And they always have an abundance of combat-seasoned veterans (unlike the U.K.) due to their continual involvement in anti-terrorism operations in North Africa. They're actually pretty tough.

    The British Navy is way better than most EU countries. Therefore no beach landings. There are 11 major ports in Scotland for mass unloading of troops and supplies. The British Navy and Air Force could easily turn these ports useless in less than a day. Scotland has 11 major airports too. Even IF transport planes got through the RAF, these airports would been rendered also useless by British bombers. More so, the EU doesn't put much into vessels to invade beach heads because they're land locked with potential enemies.

      China is the only one that might come close, but they really only have troop numbers, not greater aircraft, ship, and armament numbers than the U.S.
      U.S. carriers are also more advanced and greater in number, so an invasion from the West would have to dodge all of our bases in Korea, Japan, Hawaii, the Philippines, etc., as well as the West coast. And if they do manage to land their troops onto U.S. soil (because 100% nobody is winning a naval or air war in U.S. territory) then they'd be greeted with hundreds of millions of guns.

However, I think if we apply sense and reasoning to the scenario, in realistic terms with world consequences, then are two slightly more plausible scenarios to consider. 1.) Neutrality. The USA becomes a passive observer to the conflict, whilst perhaps (and plausibly) supplying the UK war effort indirectly, but at the same time avoiding tensions with the EU to minimise the risk of direct conflict and ensure its economic, trade and strategic military ties remain intact to protect its global interests. 2.) The USA sides with the EU politically to ensure a peaceful resolve to the conflict and protect its global interests.

That's hardly enough force to kill a squirrel! We give those to children here lol. That said, you have a pretty robust air gun community over there. But, I've been cringing hearing stories of people with beautiful $2,000 air rifles talking about how they had to nerf them to 12ft/lbs when in the states the same gun comes stock with over 60ft/lbs.

The U.S. military divides the world into regional theatres, and the Middle Eastern/Central Asian (arguably the most important), the African, and parts of the Indo-China theatre are accessed through Europe. It's a matter of logistics, and the strategic value of where Europe is in relation to the rest of the world. It's why we allot so much of our overseas resources to places like Ramstein. It's not actually about Europe itself.
      It serves as a buffer because that's where Russia has most of its expansionistic goals. It's a first front, but mainly in the case of the U.S. securing resources elsewhere, and the interest in securing Europe in order to do so.

They likely don't have enough fuel to operate 1400 aircraft and so many ships, so their efforts would be bottlenecked.
