Only two fields I see being difficult are the Siberian ones. Russia may be dangerous to others, not to the USA.

The problem is it's not the US that Russia would ever try to attack directly, other than perhaps a nuclear strike in some sort of Armageddon situation that's highly unlikely. No, where Russia could strike is towards Europe. As things stand now, if you look at the Russian military and compare that to what NATO currently fields in Europe, there's a good chance if the Russians did decide to invade, they'd probably not be stopped before they reached Berlin. The NATO of 2015 is a shell of the NATO of the late 80's.

Russia is a huge threat to Europe which makes them a big problem also for the US.
