Global Nuclear Exchange survivor roll call. Would you survive?

I live pretty close to an Air Force base that will most likely be one of the first ones nuked, so I'll be turned into air pollution.

If not, we have guns, that will be quicker than shitting my internal organs out.

If the AFB doesn't get nuked, then I think we've got an OK chance of survival.
Unless Sacramento gets hit and the wind is blowing the wrong way.

San Francisco, ehh, that place can get nuked, it's a giant shithole.
 
I'm sorta near an airforce base and a defense contractor, so with luck I'll just evaporate.
 
Even back in the 50's we figured out airburst's the way to go for nukes because the blast is more destructive and as far as I know every country's swapped to kT range weapons because you can fit more warheads in an ICBM or on a plane-fired cruise missile. That limits the amount of fallout to shit in the casing and some of the sand/structures directly under the blast that'll get sucked up into the mushroom cloud. Most of it's going to be dirt/dust that's nonradioactive. Even assuming castle-bravo levels of radiation, the 7-10 thumbrule means you're good to start moving around your house again after a couple days, and MOST of the radioactivity will be gone after 2 weeks or the first torrential rain, whichever comes first. The long lived shit accumulate in bones, so you'll die of cancer earlier than normal if you love soup.
All that being said, I'll be fine. The nearest target they'd be inclined to shoot is far downwind of me.

Fun fact Tsar bomb was originally planned to be bigger , but Soviets in the end decided to make it only half of its planned size.

It was shakarov who had to convince kruschev to make it half as powerful as it was as he had no fucking idea what a 100 megaton detonation could do, and smaller 15 megaton tests att were already more powerful than expected
 
I live in Maryland and that's where D.C. is. That's the capital of the US. It's built on land donated by Virginia and Maryland. I am pretty sure Maryland would get hit pretty hard. Remember Fallout 3? I never played much of it though.

I honestly wouldn't want to survive. Anyone who survives is going to wish they hadn't and the lucky ones will be the people that were at ground zero. The ones that were instantly vaporized. Anyone who survives or crawls out of whatever hole they were hiding in is going to either die of starvation disease or very slowly thanks to cancer from all the radioactive shit in the world.

I have seen idiots say "well I will just move out in the middle of no where". These people have no clue what they are talking about. There are missile silos all over the US. A lot of them are out in the middle of nowhere. These places are going to get hit as well. Not just with one warhead but multiple warheads. So you can move out to the middle of no where where all you see is cornfields and shit for miles. But there are missile silos some where out there and they are going to get nuked hard.

It doesn't really matter because the fallout will be all over place. The sky will be black for months. There will probably be nuclear winter with heavily radiated snow falling down which will melt and leave radioactive puddles and water everywhere. Like I said, the people who survive will wish they hadn't.
 
It's been a minute since I last heard someone talk about tzar bomba, but as much as I want to sperg on it it's most likely not what would be sent.

Realistically if Russia were to deploy nukes on the UK it would be to take out our military bases and our coms, most likely with something that explodes before it hits the floor and when there's less personel on hand to achieve maximum humanitarian crisis. This would be partially to punish us for selling weaponry to the Ukraine, but mostly to keep Americans busy scrambling after their old ally.

If that happens I'd personally ask America to leave us and concentrate on their own, we've built back from rubble before and we've plenty of arabs and Albanians to eat when shit goes real south. We might even return as a hardass county again.

As for me, well I'm well away from any interesting targets and I'm in the country with people with gun loicences, sure we'd have to blast a few Londoners looking to relocate, but the locals have been itching to do that since they keep creeping up our house prices and inviting in foreigners anyhow.
