BF2S Forums U.S Army vs U.S Navy vs U.S Airforce vs U.S.M.C

depends on the land thought on, sitation.

i would bet my money on Airfoce winning at first...but eventually marine corps.

As much as it pains me i would have to say eventually the marines would win...ONLY because they are the only branch with alot of Planes, Helicopter, and Infantry. They are the most well rounded force in the US and all the other branches have their strengths...but also weaknesses.  Air Force would no doubt rule the skies....but then again the air force cant fly if their bases are sacked by infantry...and trust me we wouldnt be able to fight like the marines in ground combat.  Not to mention their helo and air support they would have in the battle.  They would win becuase of having all elements at their disposal....ground, air, and sea if you really wanted to get down to it.

Airforce owns everyone from the air.

Well, the US Navy can put up 4000 airplanes against the 9000 of the Air force, so don't just give away the skies jet! And I don't think that attacking a Navy Carrier Group is anywhere near the top on any air force pilots I-wish-to-do-list. Not to mention all the ship, and sub, based cruise-missiles that the navy would launch on every AF-base!

who has the biggest budget tho surely that would play apart?

Marines, because my aunt, uncle, and cousin-in-law are in it.

The airforce - any airforce (say, using Tu-22M's), could easily wipe out any navy with no air support. Just launch 100 missles, each with 100kg warheads at a range of 100 miles and you're on.

but in all honesty there is no armed force in the world with the balls and heart of the marine corp.

but this is a stupid question

MARINES all the way, no one is more unforgiving then marines, we've got the hardest training from sea to the desert (29 Palms whats up) we can fight anywhere at anytime, army may have the numbers and the marines have the least ( 177,000 and counting), even God fears the Marines OORAH

if they all packed up their crap and went at it in an all out brawl on american soil who would win? ive got no idea but i thought it'd be interesting.

and i know marines are apart/under the navy so answer it either with them seperate or against. either way.

Nice poll question. You left out "mutual destruction" as the 5th coice. lol  This post indicates some people don't understand how the U.S. Military fights. Synergy is the key.

USMC is not under the Navy.

The Navy can't "win" because it needs to hold ground and can't. But it can trump the Army and USMC with nukes, so can the Air Force but by doing so it loses its own bases of operation. Air Force needs to land and refit so they are at the mercy of ground forces sooner or later. USMC and Army would be brutal but Army has more toys and enough SF/Ranger/Airborne baddasses that the USMC would be overwhelmed sooner or later. The Army and USMC can't go to sea or air with meangful force so they can't beat the Navy. The Air Force maybe able to beat the Navy 1/2 the time but the Navy has it's own mean airforce so that is a wash. Marines can go amphibious and outflank the Army so may they can capture HQ or something but otherwise no go. Rock-Paper-Scissors.

Naaaa  it is when you put these service components together that you get the preeminent asskicking machine that we have today.
