I don't think so. Do realize this island is well over 100 square miles in area.

First page question recommendation on Google

Each cruise missile based at Greenham Common carried a destructive power (the equivalent to at least 50,000 tons of TNT) four times that of the atomic bomb which obliterated Hiroshima.

Of course, in modern combat, that's what the French are for.

I assume you mean this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Green ... ssile_Wing

The missiles used were these:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BGM-109G_ ... se_Missile

Which states:
GLCM was developed as a ground-launched variant of the Tomahawk missile in use by the U.S. Navy (along with an undeveloped air-launched version, the Medium Range Air to Surface Missile (MRASM)) Unlike other variants of the Tomahawk, the GLCM carried only a W84 thermonuclear warhead; no conventional capability was provided.

tl;dr: yes they were big...but they were also nuclear. Did you fire nukes at him or not?

IC name is "Blauveldt-Ryszana".

A traumatized, but recovering, MT-Early PMT/FanT constitutional monarchy consisting of a personal and constitutional union of two Realms. Features: near-universal gun ownership, governmental dysfunction, terrified Christinaslander Air National Guard personnel counting down the days until they rotate back home, and an eternal standoff with the last of it's former oppressors.

Fine, it was a small nuclear bomb with about 2-3 times the strength of Hiroshima.

Janpia is withdrawing Taskforce-012. The 3 warships attempted to sail out of the engagement zone. The scout helicopters were also returned back to their respective warships.

Long live the Janpian Union of Revolutionary States!
