STRATEGIC NUCLEAR MISSILE FACILITIES
Manufacturer: LexCorp (Lex Terrae’s mega-conglomerate, specializes in the construction of ICBM’s, installations, and other nuclear delivery systems)
General Specs on ICBM Facilities: The command and control of the Minuteman, Peacekeeper and Titan strategic missile force is exercised from Launch Control Centers (LCCs). These LCCs are removed 20 to 150 miles from the central support base and a minimum of 14 miles from each other. The LCC itself is buried 40-100 feet below ground and can be completely self sufficient for several weeks.
A crew of two officers operates all the systems in the LCC on a 24-hour shift. From the LCC, they remotely monitor their flight of ten missiles and backup another flight of ten.
The LCC is a spartan capsule with two launch consoles, communication equipment, a small lavatory and a bed. Entry to the LCC is controlled by the crew through an elevator leading down to the LCC. The crew must open a blast door that separates their capsule from the elevator exit. Topside, a small building holds security police, a cook and support personnel. All meals for launch officers are centrally prepared, frozen and sent out to the LCCs. The topside building is surrounded by a security fence and contains within its perimeter a number of radio communications antennas, some hardened against nuclear attack. Buried cables also connect the LCC to other command centers and to the missile silos.

B53 gravity bomb
Dimensions: 3.76m length, 1.27m diameter, 1.8m tailspan
Weight: (8,850lb) kg
Circular Error Probable: Unknown, perhaps between 100-200m
Platform: B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber; B-52H Stratofortress, B-1B Lancer.
Number Deployed: 50 bombs
Yield: 9 megatons
Unit Cost: $250,000
The B53 was designed as a high yield bomb to be carried internally by the B-52s. 340 of these bombs, with large (9 megaton) yields by American standards, were built. A high yield weapon to destroy very hardened underground targets, the B53 does not have the safety and security features of the newer B61 and B83 bombs. Its fusing is also more primitive, and must be accomplished on the ground by maintenance personnel. The B53's 9-megaton warhead (similar to that used in the retired Titan II ICBM) is a survivor of the early days of nuclear weapons when yields were very large.
B61 Mod-7 gravity bomb (strategic)
Dimensions: 3.6m length, .34m diameter, .58m tailspan
Weight: 315-325 kg
Circular Error Probable: Laydown delivery: estimated under 200m, as low as 30m for Mod 10 tactical version
Locations: B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber; B-52H Stratofortress, B-1B Lancer.
Yield: Variable 100-500 kilotons, with a 10 kiloton "low" setting
Unit Cost: $500,000
The B61-7 has four yield options that can be selected in flight. This strategic version can be dropped at high speed from as low as 15m in a "laydown" delivery (a delayed surface burst where the bomb parachutes to the ground allowing the bomber to escape the blast.) The B61 can also be delivered free-fall or parachute-retarded ground or airburst. The latest versions have in-flight fusing and yield selection, as well as integrated Permissive Action Links (PALs), requiring the correct code for arming.
A variant of the B61 is under development for destroying deep bunkers, such as the Libyan chemical weapons plant at Tarhuna. The improved B61 will have an enhanced penetration capability.
B83 gravity bomb
Dimensions: 3.66m length, .46m diameter, .9m tailspan
Weight: 1,088 kg
Circular Error Probable: Unknown, perhaps between 100-200m
Locations: B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber; B-52H Stratofortress, B-1B Lancer.
Yield: 1-2 megatons
Unit Cost: $1 Million
The B83 is the most recent major U.S. bomb design, and possibly the last. It is the first megaton-range bomb designed for laydown (delayed blast, allowing the aircraft to deliver the bomb at very low altitude and escape) surface delivery against hardened targets. As such its nose cone is capable of withstanding high-speed impact with concrete or steel (in excess of 30m per second) with a delayed detonation up to 120 seconds to allow the aircraft to escape the blast. The B83 can survive delivery at up to Mach 2 at 45m. It was originally intended to be the principal weapon of the B-1B Lancer.
B61 Mod-3,-4,-10 gravity bomb (tactical)
Dimensions: 3.6m length, .34m diameter, .58m tailspan
Weight: 315-325 kg
Circular Error Probable: Laydown delivery: estimated under 200m, as low as 30m for Mod 10 tactical version
Locations: Storage facilities, assumed 350 in Europe, designed for various strike aircraft delivery
Yield: Variable .3 to 170 kilotons, varying by Mod
Unit Cost: $300,000
These are the tactical variants of the B61 bomb; see the description of the Mod-7 strategic B61 for further details. The F-111, F-4E, F-16, A-6E, and F/A-18 aircraft are all capable of carrying the B61 nuclear gravity bomb. Large numbers of these aircraft will remain in the U.S.force structure in the conventional role. Three variants of the tactical B61 exist, the Mod-3, Mod-4, and Mod-10, the last of which is a converted W85 Pershing II warhead. Each version has four variable yields from .3 to 170 kilotons - the settings for the various tactical versions are B61 Mod-3 (.3, 1.5, 60, and 170 kilotons), B61 Mod-4 (.3, 1.5, 10, and 45 kilotons), B61 Mod-10 (.4, 5, 10, and 80 kilotons).
Tomahawk TLAM-N SLCM (BGM-109A)

Guidance: Inertial and tercom/GPS
Circular Error Probable: 80m
Warhead: W80
Yield: 200 kiloton
Locations: Storage facilities, location unknown, designed for various ship or submarine launch
Primary Contractor: LexCorp
Unit Cost: $800,000
AGM-86B/C ALCM (AIR LAUNCHED CRUISE MISSILE)
General Description: The Air Launched Cruise Missile, or ALCM, is a small, subsonic air-breathing missile with a range of well over a thousand miles. It uses terrain following guidance to fly low (about 30m above ground) and is quite accurate, much like the Tomahawk of Gulf War fame. Its small size makes it difficult for air defenses to detect and intercept. The nuclear version is the AGM-86B, though there is also a conventional variant known as the AGM-86C, which additionally uses a GPS receiver for even greater precision
Dimensions: 6.32m length, .69m diameter
Weight: 1,458 kg
Propulsion: F-107-WR-100 turbofan
Maximum Speed: Mach .66
Range: 1500 nautical miles
Guidance: Inertial with tercom/GPS
Warhead: W80
Circular Error Probable: 30m
Yield: 200 kilotons
