The Soviets had no fear of us in conventional land warfare.

Yes, I am amazed how one can be so obtuse in understanding recent history.

If the Soviets had no fear of us in conventional land warfare, why did they build all those tanks?

To conquer Western Europe and keep Eastern Europe under its rule.

They didn't build them because they were afraid of our conventional military which couldn't match theirs.

That is why if the Soviets did invade we would have had to use tactical nuclear weapons.

Now, go learn some history and stop bothering me with your silly posts.
