I have been following reviews on war games where the US would fight a smaller country. What I find surprising is how ingenious generals are when it comes to tactics on tackling a US Nacy Fleet.

One general used the mosque prayer broadcast system to coordinate attacks which caught the generals playing as the US off guard and unable to find out how they are coordinating

One general used small suicide attack boats that are hard to hit which destroyed or disabled the billion dollar carriers. This has made the US upgrade their CWIS to open fire on small boats effectively (FYI I believe the Ukranians have tried to do this on a frigate on Sevastopol, the attack helicopters were having such a difficult time destroying the suicide drone boats).

One country has halted the US advance using fast pick up trucks with armor piercing munitions to run behind the flanks of the US in the war on Afghanistan.

Ukraine, is now using drones rigged with droppable bombs to scatter the Russian bodies everywhere. (Ukraine is making significant advances as of today but the world is still watching if Russia would press the big red button since they are losing big time)

I am now wondering how we (Philippines) could potentially defend our country being an archipelago. I find this difficult since we have a weak navy and airforce, in an ongoing civil war with communist rebels and radical muslim elements. Don't get me wrong, I support our soldiers but I am afraid the government has abandoned them by importing outdated Nth hand military surplus meanwhile there is rampant corruption.
Realistically, they cannot defend their country on their own. Especially with the advancement of warfar these days. This is why alliances like NATO exist

The short answer is we can’t, we will defend our country yes but not effectively. Russia looks incompetent but thats still a huge incompetent country with resources were still going to lose if its attrition and we didn’t lose in the first few weeks of invasion.

Guerilla Warfare among other things. Can't defend the cities, but will make invaders pay for every inch of land so much so that they end up leaving
Examples: North Vietnam during the Vietnam War, Afghanistan during the Soviet-Afghan War, the Taliban recently
