Fact is that even assuming a 150 kiloton detonation over the Pacific naval command headquarters in Pearl Harbour, the casualties would be at most 20,000 deaths and 120,000 injuries, mainly from burns. Unless someone is within 0- 5 kms, they won't have a quick death if outside and unprotected.

oldtrucker wrote:Ya...if NK targets the population ,casualties would be much higher. I'm going to guess that the CEP of a single warhead from NK
would be 2000m or less. Just a guess. I'm assuming there are no mirv's at play either.Single rv's only. When using nukemap...I almost always click 100% chance of no burn and use 1.5 to 2.5 psi. Hope it doesn't happen...but the reality is it's not if ,it's when. Unless we do a pre-emptive,we have less than a year before NK has 10-15 fusion, and 60-80 fission, making a war unwinnable if you know what I mean.

Let's assume a 50 warhead attack for funzies. A 25% RV failure rate and a 50% NORAD ABM success rate. Approx 15-20 warheads would find their targets. 1 or 2 hits on Naval complex Kitsap just outside Seatle. I have no faith in any ABM system we have.(Norad) Maybe we should buy S-400,S- 500 's from Russia.
I don't know about you but I really miss Nukemap 3D.

Anything over 1.5 km/s ,65000 ft , 17-20 kms away and the MIM-104 is out of it's league. Unfortunately,(or for the better,if you agree with ABM treaties) there is no defence system that can reliably hit a RV,including the navy's new magnetic rail gun. Nothing. Google" RV Kura test range".

They blamed Saddam for wanting to kill all of us, so they killed him, destroyed his country, killed half a million children and two million other people, and stole Iraq's resources.

They blamed Gadafy for having weapons and wanting to kill all of us, so they killed him, destroyed the country with the highest standard of living in Africa, killed thousands of people and stole their resources.

They blamed bin Laden for having weapons and wanting to kill all of us, so we bombed Afghanistan, killed thousands of people, and now we are free to build pipelines and steal their minerals.

They are blaming Iran for having missiles and wanting to kill all of us, because they want to kill Iran, destroy
his country and steal all their resources.

How many times do we have to get kicked in the head before we figure things out? Do you people really think the chubby Dear Leader wants a war with us? Or do our warmongers want to kill him, slaughter a million Koreans, and steal their resources?

When are you guys going to figure things out?
