The above refers to the fact that
should war begin, the enemy would not
passively watch the process of NATO
reinforcement in Europe. Airstrikes
against harbors may happen - with
these ports being the destination for
the cargo vessels. Submarines would
be the primary threat in the Atlantic
region. Long-range aviation is a lesser
threat, due to the cuts that were
imposed on the Russian military. Still, it
should not be treated lightly. A sinking
of at least one cargo ship would have
consequences far more serious than it
used to have in the past. One vessel
would be carrying more equipment than
ever. And time is needed to recover
the losses. Effective attacks targeting
the sea routes, with the sinking of the
cargo ships, along with the equipment,
could be decisive for the war as a
whole, and its course.
