NATO’s Plan to Deploy 800,000 troops Against Russia

NATO is preparing to transport 800,000 soldiers and 200,000 armored vehicles to the border with Russia in the event of full scale war. The publication Der Spiegel just reported this after gaining access to secret military documents. Russia, North Korea, Iran, and China, have contingency plans just like this one. But moving that many troops would be a massive undertaking unlike anything we’ve seen in recent history. How does NATO plan to achieve that goal? What challenges are there to deploying that many soldiers across the world? And what are some of the strengths and weaknesses of a collective defense alliance?

Key to understanding NATO’s plan are five new transportation routes, each one centered around a different port where transport ships filled with troops and vehicles would arrive. The stated reason for the creation of these new movement corridors is because Russia’s long range missiles could destroy ports, bridges or bases. Looking at this map we can see that all of Europe is within range of many types of Russian ballistic missiles. This would severely limit transportation options and could make mobilizing troops under the current plan unsustainable.
