2015 (Modern World, OOC/Signups, Open, New Thread)

[The Enclave Government]

if nukes start flying, does Turkey have permission to use the bombs you put in Turkey?

If they fly towards you, yes. Best part about the modern-world, is that we have targeting computers that can find out where the Nuke will hit. If it comes to Turkey fire away, if it doesn't, then hold the horses.

Best part for you is that since you gave them to me, i cant even look at them without a signature from Chuck Hagel AND Obama!

[Roski]

There not going to hit anyway, seeing how strongly defended Russia is in matters of air defense.

You do know that it is super hard to hit something that goes faster then the speed of sound accurately right? And the only country that even has a real chance to defend against that, is the United States, but even that is like a 7% chance....

Russia, The United States, and the United Kingdom all have a chance to shoot down ICBM before it goes as far as Moscow.
NATO, Russia, and China can defend themselves from it before it gets too close (Poland, shoot it down over Estonia plox)

Precisley, not to mention that Russia has a entire system to defend both its country, and a whole nother defensive shield for Moscow its self.

I'm not saying more nations have a possibility of shooting it down. But to be honest, who would be stupid enough to try and shoot it down? For one, some nations do have the capabilities of shooting it down, but the USA has the best. But lets say it fired and they suceeded in shooting it down, you do know if a Nuclear Missile is destroyed above a country, that it is a EMP at that point, wiping out power for miles and miles, that won't come back up for years correct?

That depends how high up the missile is fired, and the ability of the technicians.

IF it doesn't get above 30,000 ft, the effects are minimal.
However, Russia and the United States could fix the effects of an EMP rather rapidly.
Same with NATO, because US Technicians will be on scene if that happens.

Thanks Captain Obvious. I really did not know that, not like I have mentioned that OOC as a way to destroy the US before...
Actually, it wouldn't detonate necessarily, Typically, nuclear weapons don't arm themselves until shortly before they hit the target. Most modern day nuclear bombs require a fission type reaction to really start themselves up.

All that would really be at risk is a small isolated radiation leak were ever the remains of the nuke come down.

That system is specifically designed to defend from nukes coming from the west, aka Europe. It is nearly useless when it comes to missiles launching from within Russia, and it would take weeks to reform it so it would be even close to capable of stopping a siberian launch.

How though? If it detonated over Siberia, you got to know that all trains, and planes would not be operational in the affected area. Siberian Infastructure is terrible, so even getting it through by truck would take months on end, with them only traveling by day, as Siberian Nights are horrible and easy to get lost in. All and all, terrible situation to be in.

Not as bad because it would be summer.

Unless it's winter in this timeline, then you're screwed.

Its October in the RP, so GG would have to wait until about July, but if Siberia goes out... why does it matter?

You know...if Siberia did go out, it would be Hilarious for like China or NK to just march troops and take all of Siberia as they are used to being in the dark, and no-one would realize due to no communications, and would only know after it would be done...

I think we would notice, we have thousands of satellites.

But still, SIberia holds almost nothing for Russia.

Other than silos.

Your point? It's a somewhat antiquated system specifically designed to protect from Westward nukes, it would be able to defend from the east equally, but it takes time to recalibrate, and frankly this crisis wont last the several days it will take.

Not really, maybe a couple hours at most but keep in mind the Soviets were worried that missles might be coming out of Alaska, so there surly would be protocols for eastern originated missiles.

Quit igonoring this common sensical fact.

And with the low amount of a actual Military presence, it is just like a big chunk of Russia that could be split between NK, China, Kazakhstan, and Mongolia. It would just be super hilarious, although it would truly be up to those countries to do that. And they could give all of the weapons to like the West, and be like "WE HAVE DISARMED THE RUSSIAN BEAR".

Simple answer to this:

What happens when you blow up a bomb before it explodes?

ANSWER: IT EXPLODES!


And that is that....

No it doesn't, get this, okay it doesn't arm until seconds before it hits its target, and even then it has to go through a actual fissile process. The biggest exsplosion you get will be the HE surrounding the nuclear core going off, then it falls to Earth, and all you really get from there would be a radiation leak. See, parts of the nuke must receive the correct voltage for the nuclear package to arm its self and eventually fire.

My god Waz..... I am sorry, but just....

[Hobbesistan]

GG is actually right, Nukes don't arm into they get near the target, as if you get something like a failed launch, you don't nuke your own silo.


That said, the terrorists may be able to jerryrig it to be armed at launch.

Supopsedly, but I doubt any of them are nuclear physicists.

Arming a nuclear weapon doesn't take a nuclear physicist.

Its designed so that pilots can do it in flight, it only automates the process in a ICBM.
