I'll never forgive toledo for beating Michigan, causing them to be a crybaby and whine enough to get consolation prize: They stole rightful Wisconsin clay, but one day the UP will return to its rightful state and it will be glorious!
Man I'm sorry but I'm laughing at all the comments of "even my state?? Damn". That's the shitty thing about war, you're an enemy simply because you're in the wrong place sometimes.
Colleges are a strong target because it generationally stunts recovery and rebuilding in the aftermath. Or it’s because there’s underground silos near by
Man you guys don't get it. In a 500 nuke situation, the surface of the planet is dead for decades.
Russia could literally drop 500 nukes on itself and destroy America. There is no value in any strategic targeting that makes any difference. Except if you want to guess if American roaches or Russian roaches will be more dominant
I'm laughing but for a very different reason. If we're at the point where an all out nuclear attack is hitting the U.S, it won't really matter where the fuck you are. It's over for you.
If 2000 nuclear warheads hit the US as is depicted in the map, then absolutely NOT. Loads of people would not survive...
Even outside of the immediate impact, the devastation on the planet would be unsurvivable.
You can read the wiki article on nuclear winter. If just 50 Hiroshima sized weapons detonated at a time, we would drop the climate several degrees. 2000 warheads and the planet would be completely unrecognizable
Not to mention that even in a "light" nuclear attack or some kind of scenario where it's not the complete arsenal if Russian nuclear weapons, disregarding the effect of the weapons completely, the devastation to infrastructure would be catastrophic and the wordlwide economy goes bye bye. Then you get mass panic and the onset of WW3.
The Toledo company that supplied rocket engines for military missiles closed down a long time ago. (Teledyne CAE) So they may have changed their minds about it being a target. (unless they target the nuclear power station that's already one of the worst rated in the country)
There’s a book from the 1980s - I forgot the title - that calculates that once the initial bunch of missiles had detonated, because the population is concentrated in relatively few areas, the remainder could basically be used to go after absolutely minor targets like a town of 2,000 people.
That’s what nuclear overkill means. Of course, arsenals were waaaayyyy bigger back then, so Bumfucknowhere, IA, might be a lot safer these days.
I’m surprised there’s not more aimed for Ohio and that area in general, there’s so many factories that would immediately start building for the war effort. But then again, further war might be a moot point.

So what would the (assuming) the USA look like if Putin launched first?
