It posed a threat to Soviet military supremacy. With this combined threat the soviet government was forced to expand their own military force to keep pace with the combined powers of the NATO pact. This lead to huge portions of Russia's GDP being poured into military expense. This later crippled them when their purchases wore out and broke down. Now Russia's military force is but a fraction of its Soviet pinnacle.
