One issue with the NATO fleets is, of course, fuel and maintenance. They require infrastructure for support, including drydocks, machine shops, and there is the matter of armaments. Even if not using the most modern vessels, the main armaments are missiles. So I have a few questions:
1. How many useful ports would still be in operation?
2. How many vessels would it be possible to keep maintained and fully functional?
3. Would MEUs still support the USMC in the Persian Gulf and between Korea-Japan?
