Weapons in the Red Dawn Remake

[MT2008]

BTW, I forgot to mention that when the original "Red Dawn" came out, a Red invasion would have been even LESS likely. Before 1985, the Russians' only aircraft carriers were the Kiev class, which were tiny and couldn't fly anything except short-range jump jets and helicopters. Their first aircraft carrier capable of flying capable offensive fighters like the MiG-29K and Su-33 was the Admiral Kuznetsov, which was launched in 1985. Even then, the MiG-29K and Su-33 weren't in service at the time (they weren't until after the Cold War ended), so they wouldn't have had air superiority fighters capable of taking on our F-15s and F-16s.

And as I've said already, you'd need LOTS of aircraft carriers, with LOTS of air superiority fighters, to even think about invading the U.S. So, even at the time "Red Dawn" was in theaters and the Ruskies still hated our guts more than they do today, your chances of seeing a Soviet invasion of the U.S. were about .0__________01% (insert infinitely more zeros in the blank space).
