They have been tested.
But you don’t see the point. The Americans will never send 200000 soldiers to fight in trench warfare.
They won’t shell and level towns and cities neither.
The Americans will plan their attacks meticulously to avoid as much fighting as possible.
The last time was Vietnam War. It will never happen again.
The Americans would probably hit high value military targets, communications, Government infrastructure and they would do it with Cruise Missiles, Air Power, Predator Drones, and at most send a Seals and Ranger and control a bridgehead and then fly their troops into the war zone on Galaxy Aurcradt only when they have established their perimeter security.
They won’t send in 2000 Abrams across the border like Russia did and lose 50000 soldiers.
What Russia did was just completely outdated and stupid.
Basically, America wouldn’t put its troops into such a stupid predicament. Clearly, they value their soldiers a hell of a lot more.
So you agree they tried it and failed in Vietnam, thousands of miles away, which did not even pose a threat to their National interests or security.
The Russians are trying it now, they did not fail so far, while Ukraine , did pose a threat to their National interests and security, was applying genocide to the Russian majority living in the East and South, and also signed the Minsk agreements, without any intention of implementing them, just to gain time to bring Nato to their doorstep.
The only thing you forgot is that they also turned ex-Yugoslavia to ruins, and just because nobody opposed them, they quite easily split the country in 4-5 pieces.
If you were clever you would have wondered what's so special about Ukraine.
