It was. We are very lucky there was never a direct confrontation between the different sides at the height of their strength. If the USSR and China had been able to create a common cause and gone fully aggressive in the 70s, there would've been a good chance of either a nuclear war or WWIII sweeping the world. That is a hot war.
