Think about how the Vietnam War went for USA. USSR was doing there almost exactly what USA (and the rest of their alliance) is doing now in Ukraine.

I wouldn't use the Ukraine war as an example of the US army being competent (except for maybe logistics and intel). We're supplying then, but we're not doing the actual fighting.

And in the same way USSR didn't fight in the Vietnam war.
