The two most famous confrontations were the Berlin Airlift of 1948-1949 and the Cuban Missile Crisis of October, 1963. In the latter, the two sides were on the brink of nuclear war.
Peripherally, the Soviets supported North Korea during the Korean War (1950-1953) but the intervention by China was the major Communist influence in the war.

∙ 12y agoThe main issue that divided the two countries was their political and economic models: the USA was a capitalist republic and the Soviet Union was communist Dictatorship. Also, the Soviet Union and the US were both large countries which produced a lot of different things leading to international competition for their goods. And in the end, there was also the matter of the Cuban conflict and the nuclear arms competition, where the US and Soviet Union both tried to produce most nuclear arms during a long period of time.
