The title of the most destructive force will always belong to the army. We have to clean up what you mess up. And artillery still has deliver for more accurate, sustainable fire than any airplane.
Joking aside. I rather have the USAF with me than against me. They might not be able to do my job for me but at least they can tell me to start running because a whole bunch of bad guys are coming my way.

You're both wrong.
The USN and it's 14 Ohio SSBNs, 12 super carriers, it's 30ish SSNs and some 3,000 TLAM launch tubes is the most powerful military force in the world, especially when you consider that the Marines, and all their assets, all officially belong to the Navy too.
I didn't know that USN reduced the nbr of SSNs from 65 to somewhere around 34-38.You're both wrong.

Why the drastic cut?
I mean USN has 12 carriers and thus 12 battlegroups. It takes at least 3 submarines to protect a battlegroup so 12 * 3 is 36. That means this leaves no sub for recon or covert operations sub hunting on their own.
You're all wrong its the United States Nuclear Command and Control System (NCCS) followed by the US Strategic Command (STRATCOM) that is America's most powerful military force in its inventory.
However I believe its the Russian Nuclear Command that is the worlds most powerful military force. They have a credible nuclear stockpile of over 55,000 nuclear warheads since 1945.
lol... Adolf, please stop. PLEASE... America is the most powerful nation on the face of the earth at the moment and you have to learn to accept that...
WrongAmerica is the most powerful nation on the 'butt' of the earth, its the world's 'sorry ass' at the moment
man... I don't wanna start an argument about this. America is cool as long as they keep killing these terrorists. Oh yeah, Israel is cool too. lolWrong

Another one for the bodycount. Y'all know the drill...treat him like he's dead, and he'll eventually stop posting here. In MY world, he already HAS stopped posting here.
LIKE HE'S DEAD, people...just don't respond.

The ignore list is awesome.
Well when did USAF had a comparable enemy last time? Yes in North Korea when Russian pilots have beaten them hardly.Golly, what a bunch o' buffoons, huh? That US Error Farce can't seem to do ANYthing right.
Do you happen to know when the last US soldier was killed by enemy air attack?
Do you happen to know the number of the US Air Force's air-to-air losses for the past three decades?.
Confirmed number of allied warplanes (mostly US) knocked down by Russian pilots in Dec 1950 through July 1953 came to 1097 (1067 in daylight and 30 at night time).
This included 69 B-29, 7 B-26, 2 RB-45, 121 F-80, 1 RT-33, 2 F-82, 178 F-84, 651 F-86, 12 F-94 (probably wrongly identified T-33 F3D-2, F-80, F9F-2), 2 F-47 (probably wrongly identified F4U or AD-1), 2 F6F (probably wrong identified), 30 F-51, 2 F4U, 28 Meteor, six F9F NAVY.
The total losses of Russian air corpus were 121 pilot and 335 warplanes. Russian pilots were fighting on MiG-15 and earlier versions of MiG (propeller driven). Not until 1995 USAF have met Russian pilots. Then Flankers (Su-27UBK) proved to be superior to F-15C. Though I don't know if Russian AF still has that quality of the pilots now........
So it is good that US AF may be proud with victories over Iraq where its power was overwhenling or Yugoslavia or Grenada, Panama.... and in future probably Cuba
