Burgers Adopt Precision-Guided Nuclear Bomb

Looks like Alpha Centauri.

That's Alpha Centauri. One of the late game units you can research is the 'Planet Buster' missile that wipes out whatever the fuck it hits (including cities) and digs a huge, Vredefort tier, crater into the map. They're really quite fun, but if you use them every AI nation in the game declares war on you no matter what. So you only end up using them if they're your last chance, or if you can take on the rest of the planet and are just using the PB for shits and giggles. Most of LAN games I've played of AC end up with 2-3 of the more successful players stockpiling them in an arms race, completely ending any hope of a military victory - which provides a very fun example of why Mutually Assured Destruction works.


Hadn't considered using them for hard targets, I thought you guys were still keeping the B53 for those.

The ink just dried on an F-35D; it's an F-35 the size of a B1. :^)

You mean the one supposed to be built in 2035 when everyone not-NATO is gearing up for WWIII in 2020?

Belgium, Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands are listed on that infographic, but what's the fifth?

The F-35 will carry the B61-12 internally.

The -B version, yes. But the -A and -C versions can carry the Mk84 internally.

Yeah but B-61 are thinner (diameter) than mk-84 but I think they're longer (all measurement on the interweb are useless, they're way too short so it's probably the bomb itself, mk-61 in fact, without it's tail assembly), maybe not by much but Murphy's law dictate it will be enough.

I saw the documents and I'm going to reveal the reason for this. Don't worry, the government can't get me because I'm behind seven proxies.
The missile didn't knoww where it was at the time. It didn't know this because it didn't know where it wasn't. By subtracting where it thought it was from where it wasn't, or where it wasn't, from where it was, whichever is greater, it obtained an incorrect difference, or deviation. The guidance sub-system used deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it thought it was, to a position where it thought it wasn't, and arriving at a position where it thought it wasn't, it headed toward the US.

Meanwhile in Russia.
(AFAIK it's the only uncut footage of a SLBM salvo from undersea).

They will probably strap two F-35 Merkels together like the twin mustang
