Meh, there's no warheads that big in existence anymore, the biggest is the the Chinese DF-5 which is max yield 5 Mt's, the Russians are retiring the SS-18's, so the biggest warhead they have now is only 800 Kt's, but the thing is, they shower the targets with MIRV's now, so it's not going to be one warhead over the city center, they'll spread 8-12 of them all around the subburbs too, so calculate from the edge of the urban area, not just downtown.The Conservative wrote:The RDS-220 is the Tzar bomb, I've already accounted for that.Smitty-48 wrote:The RDS-220 was never deployed as an operational warhead, the biggest warhead the Soviets ever deployed was only half as big, mind you, RDS-220; third degree burns at 60+ miles, it had quite the effects radius indeed, 40 miles was still well inside the kill zone.The Conservative wrote: Even an Airburst version would not even touch where I live... that being said, we'd feel it, but it doesn't mean squat. The fact is that the only nuke that could touch us (airburst or not) would be a Tzar bomb... and I don't know about you but I don't see Boston being that important to take out everything in nearly a 40-mile range.
The only thing we'd have to worry about would be the possible fallout, and that is if the wind is coming directly at us, otherwise nope.
The Soviet engineers watching the test, they reported feeling the thermal effects, from 170 miles away.

Oh and by the way, if you don't think Boston is high on the hit list, don't kid yourself, the Russians will have at least two full missile throw weights targeting the entire region, at least one SLBM and an ICBM just to make sure, the greater Boston area would eat something like 16-24 800 Kt MIRVs.

Re: THE ERA OF TRUMP
You are saying that all the damage hurricanes do is because of poor planning? Do you feel this way about all the other major hurricanes? I was in Irma and lost power and cell service and we had downed trees all over the area - we couldn't leave our neighborhood for the first two days.The Conservative wrote:

Is that my fault?
