Not completely impossible, if it was built in granite mountians with a concrete-steel-rock covering 150 feet thick. However I thing I will lower it to 2 Megatons

I'll build them

The energy generated from the blast of a 20-megaton nuke instantly vaporizes anything within the immediate blast radius.

Scoobis would gladly build it for you, we provide our own tools, and food, and we can grease the local inspecters too :wink:

We'll work harder than anyone else....

Also, please include what it can withstand a direct hit from and how the ICBM is launched.

Instead of silos, we can manufacture mobile launchers for various smaller IRBMs.

I may be interested in this. I would rather have it on a railroad system and road system.

Personally Omz222, we would prefer that you don't. Iuthia currently has Kahta on our Black List, a list of nations to place trade embargos on; because they threatened to use Nuclear Weapons unless a nation changed it's policy regarding Jews.

While we can understand the anger they must of felt we can't imagine what line of thinking made someone think they can save the Jewish people by nuking a nation while they were still in it. Even if it was an empty threat we were not at all impressed with it in the least.

OOC: Source of Iuthian reasoning. (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=78766&start=0)

This requirement of 10'000 missile silos seems troublesome to us, though it doesn't really imply much we would rather not have dealings with this nation until it is shown that they are more responcable with threats of a nuclear nature.


However, no harm to your reputation within Iuthia will be done as we can understand your desire for some extra business that will certainly help boost your economy. We just wanted to express our concern.

Good day to you.

Iuthia-- I understand your concern and wish that it had been brought to my attention earlier. I would like to make the following statement:

The Government of Kahta was under a different regime at that time. A large number of ultra-liberal military types allowed that statement to leak through. When the populace heard about it a recall was held and since then they have been replaced with just regualr liberals. The Country of Kahta does not wish to start a nuclear war with anyone.

The 10,000 silos are for the 10,000 ICBM's a have ordered. The order was to the fledgeling defense contractors in my country so that we would be able to end our dependence on foreign countries providing us with weapons. The 10,000 ICBM's are also to use only in times of exreme emergency such as if we were facing a large country who had invaded us. The ICBM's would be used as a bargaining tactic, however no real intent would be behind the threats. In addition to being a bargaining tactic they would make other nations think twice before using any form of WMD's.

Nuclear, bilogical, and chemical weapons are never our first strike option. They are used only situations that are listed above. They never have been and never will be our first strike weapon. That is the job for cruise missiles and stealth bombers.

Very well, I feel that the above statement will suffice, I'm sure understand that we keep track of these things so I am likely to point at this quote should you do the contary.

That said I'm your not completely off the hook, you have been downgraded to "Gray List", which means you are no longer placed under economic embargos from our nation, nor will you be shuned from our political events, however the gray list does meen that we are going to be watchful to make sure you are not a threat to Iuthia.

We would also like to warn you that a nuclear arsenal is becoming less and less intimidating these days, though the use (in Iuthia's eyes) still carries the same disgust. Many large nations have a SDI system in place to take down ICBM's like those used for Thermo-nuclear devices.

Eitherway we are re-assured now that you have at least improved since that time, we can only hope that this continues and doesn't revert back to the old ways.

OOC: While I don't mind the idea of a small nations having nuclear weapons that are ICBM capable, I do have a problem with a small nation having 10'000 nuclear weapons... so I assume that most of those ICBM's are conventional exspodives and not nuclear weapons.

OOC: No, not all of them are nuclear. About 30% are nuclear. The rest are HE conventional. Imagine several daisy cutters or MOABs in one ICBM. I do however have all my Ohios carrying nuclear weapons. If a vehicular system is implemented that too will carry the nuclear weapons.
