I'll be honest and say that I'm just picking 1987 at random. But World War III is often discussed on this board in terms of the Fulda Gap slugfest.

What's not normally thought about is the probable attempt by the Soviets to break out of the Bosphorus and the fight the Turkish (and Greek) militaries would have to put up to stop them.

The Soviet Black Sea fleet was a fearsome creature that never was truelly unleashed, not even in the time of the Russian Empire, when the Russo-Japanese War saw a Second Pacific Squadron formed out of North Sea based ships.

So...what would have been the battlefields on sea, land, and air, and how do you think they would've gone?
