Which Cities Would the United States Target in a Nuclear War?

Nuclear Target Lists:

[joshuagraham_mof]

I live in Russia, and my City is on the list… I pray that our countries can avoid this catastrophic scenario and someday live in peace.

Update: I am both hopeful and diasappointed because of replies. On one hand many people from different countries share their will for peace on Earth, but at the same time some people reply with hate for someone they don't even know, just because this person lives in one or the other country. I wish no ill for latter and send my best wishes to every person that replied, even if I don't agree with some.

For me this is the top 1 horrifying thing to ever exist. No horror or science fiction will ever match the cruelty of a nuclear war.

"Why don't aliens come and see us?"

For better understanding, it is worth releasing a second part, where it will be shown how many victims there will be in other countries. Poisoned air carried by sea currents, poisoned rivers flowing to other countries, the ozone layer, climate disasters, a new ice age and beyond.

It’s truly terrifying what we have become capable of

The detonation sequence at the end with that sound design is really well done. Most things don't scare me, but that is absolutely terrifying.

It's just a prank bro,

As an American I hope this never, ever, ever, happens. May the U.S., Russia and other nuclear powers find peaceful solutions to whatever conflict or threat arises. Not just human lives, think of all the innocent species of animals, and plants that will disappear forever. Historical artifacts and architecture, art, culture gone forever. The cost is too great. No nuclear warhead should ever be used again.

Nobody wins in a nuclear exchange. Don't ever think of anything.

Finally, it will be quiet. No cars, no airplanes, no music, no commercial....just go ahead

[jonathanmcniel]

this actually scared me and your fast voice gave me anxiety.

The story of Oppenheimer's infamous quote. As he witnessed the first detonation of a nuclear weapon on July 16, 1945, a piece of Hindu scripture ran through the mind of Robert Oppenheimer: “Now I have become Death, the destroyer of worlds, and hell follows me!!”.
Albert Einstein was quoted as having said: "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones".

I grew up in a town that was generally assumed to be a preprogrammed zero point in the event of nuclear war. This was because a few miles to our west was major naval facility that also stored a large amount of nuclear warheads. To our east was a major city that served as the the HQ for one of the biggest defense companies in the world. So if they missed they'd hit one of the real targets more directly and if they hit us dead on they irradiate the surrounding area making it dangerous to traverse through.

Though in all likelihood they would probably plaster the whole area with multiple warheads to insure total destruction.

Wait... where did the 300 mile separation footprint come from? At that altitude the footprint would be more like 3 times that range.

А теперь представьте такую же самую – что и на заставке – картину над США, Британией, etc., с одним добавлением, что каждая нарисованная боеголовка распадается ещё на несколько. Это, надеюсь, несколько отрезвит желающих начать ядерный Армагеддон. Худой мир лучше доброй ссоры.

[ISchots]

The biggest problem is that some people seem to think that he who has the most nukes "wins".

[LyroLife]

Imagine surviving this and living in a world without internet, food, people, air ..

[mxewupk]

Сould you do a similar one on which cities the Russians will target in the us? And your estimate of casualties.

[andresvega]

The number of casualties does not take the following ice age into consideration. Hold your dear ones close and tell them you love them while you can.

At the :50 mark Hungary and Bulgaria have switched their geographic locations, obviously having used some highly advanced technology.
