    The US is famous for its advanced weapons but those depend on massive supply chains all over the country.

    They can’t even supply Ukraine with artillery shells.

    All the factories the US had to spin up in their last conventional war are gone and are the people who knew how to run them and work them.

    A civil conflict would be pretty short unless an external power started supplying one side with arms.
