Given the US has nuclear weapons, I doubt they’re afraid of invasion. There can’t really be a conventional war between nuclear powers. Any future conflicts will be proxy wars.

The point of course in having both conventional and nuclear weapons is so that your range of responses is wider than between nothing and a mushroom cloud.
