Isn't the 'if' necessary here?

And it doesn't fit at all with the japanese sentence. You can maybe adopt the english one and correct it.

I tried to change it. Still needs native check, though.

I think "should a war break out" would be better

Thank you for your suggestions. I'll just wait a little longer for natives to throw in suggestions as well. :-)

"What would become of us, should a war break out?" is also possible...and I think that was what was initially intended except words were displaced...
