LOL... They think a nuclear exchange will stop at silos? That is a silly map.

Had lots of silos in western Arkansas. Could always tell when driving backroads.

That is a silly map.

Yes it is. No nuclear strike on the Kirkland AFB nuclear emergency stockpile of 5,500 nuclear weapons ready for refurbishment?

What about the two (2) SSBN bases and their storage units with spare Tridents?

What about the Pantex plant, Y12, LLNL, etc?

There should be three to five maps concerning nuclear warfare:
1) Counterforce map 1(anything that can harm Russia, mainly operational nuclear forces, Command, Communications, etc. formerly called bolt from the blue or quick first strike/decapitation strike). This map would include the above references plus Raven Rock, DC, Pentagon, etc.
Counterforce map 2: Further strikes as needed such as any runway over 7,000 feet in case bomber fleet was scrambled or ICBM silos empty....maybe ports servicing SSBNs/SSNs (since they can carry SLCM with nuclear warhead (even though all the nukes are stored in Kirkland AFB), etc.


3) Countervalue targets, to include large cities with large workforce supporting defense industry, transport, communications, rail, etc...such as Amarillo (Pantex), above DOE/NNSA locations, rail yards, ports, etc. Huntsville, AL would be another.
4) Countervalue targets (full strike) : Cities over 500m people, chemical, technology, distribution cities such as Kansas City, Indianapolis, Nashville, Memphis, etc.
5) Terrorist/limited/dirty nuke map by nuclear states such as Pakistan, Iran, NK, etc.
