Yes its not exactly the US military but bloody hell, you would have a very very hard time trying to take over Switzerland - even these days. Road tunnels designed to be blown up, hundreds of thousands of modern trained soldiers with guns at home - fighting on their own terrain, ammunition dumps in individual towns, strong points, bunkers in every apartment block, supplies of modern anti armour weapons, lots of people trained in the use of explosives, etc etc
Good luck getting in there.

- ptaipale 10y agoAirplanes can do air superiority, but you can't take over a country without boots on the ground. The idea of Germany invading Switzerland is surreal.
- tonfa 10y agoThat's said you only need to take over the Bundesplatz in Berne. (Still I'm not sure what it would achieve to start an open war...)
