Yes. The Northern Wars come immediately to mind

No
Christians should not kill christians

Not really. Interactions between Protestants and Orthodox have been extremely limited until quite recently. The early Lutherans held some communication with the Eastern Church that went nowhere. The New Finnish School of Lutheranism attempted to find traces of theosis in Lutheran theology. The OCA in the United States has drawn more than a few Protestant converts, most of whom don't last very long (although some do). There really just isn't much interaction outside of the United States, and perhaps in some historically Orthodox countries like Ukraine, which has vibrant Protestant minorities that nobody listens to.

Sweden vs Russia
The only match were any emphasis was put on religion i would say

I don't think in the name of religion. Countries and peoples themselves, yes, definitely.

individauls in it may have been orthodox

state atheism never really seeps past the upper echelons. Even in China today, most Chinese are unofficially religious, they are just registered as atheist, but still follow traditional culture/beliefs.

Yes but Soviet Union itself was anti-religious, you can't call it an Orthodox state.

OP's question: "have protestants ever fought orhtodox christians"

most soviet citizens and soldiers were probably orthodox christians, regardless of the state.

Americans bombed Serbia. Does that count?

For one there was sort of ethnic tension between the different finnic groups based on religous grounds. When Sweden took over West Karelia and Ingria they discriminated very heavily against the orthodox groups while they encouraged the lutheran finns to migrate so most of the karelians and ingrians in the area either left for Russia or became lutheran finns.
Then there is also the fact that the swedish army was hugely motivated by religion and it sort of united the different ethnic groups against the enemy, they all fought for a common church against the heretics. These factors were mostly only present during the swedish empire era though.

Well, I believe there weren't many religious wars between Orthodox and Catholics themselves (there were wars between east and west, but religion wasn't the main issue), and there wouldn't be a reason for it to happen between Protestant and Orthodox, since the Reform was no threat to Orthodox hegemony in Eastern European countries.

But, as far as I know, Tsar Peter III of Russia wanted to bring the Reformation to Russia, and this was one of the reasons why he was so unpopular. (Meanwhile his wife, soon to be Tsarina Catherine The Great, openly abandoned her Lutheran faith for Orthodoxy)

WWII, WWI, Crimean War, various Swedish-Russian wars
