Chapter 418: Sir, This Is Your Nuclear Bomb Package
Watt!?
When the Avengers sent the news back to the top of the US military, the top brass in Washington was stunned.
It's uncomfortable enough to be invaded by aliens for some reason, and until now, it's all up to death, but now it's said that the portal can't be closed.
The news is maddening.
Tens of thousands of US troops were killed and wounded, and I don't know how much of their weapons and equipment were bombed. As long as the US troops dared to rise within a 10-kilometer radius around New York, they were bombed.
The artillery could still attack from a distance of 50 kilometers. It's a pity that after a maximum of three rounds, it will be withdrawn, because if you don't leave, the little airship of the Zetari biochemical soldiers will be killed.
When the surrounding land forces are basically fighting the streets, and even the aircraft carrier fleet has suffered heavy losses, cruise missiles and aircraft are more reliable. Compared to the air force, which also suffered staggering battle losses, launching cruise missiles became the only option.
Problem: Cruise missiles are expensive!
Even the [Tomahawk] cruise missile in the nineties cost $1 million a shot that year.
In peacetime, where are there so many spare bombs?
After fighting for most of the day, Lao Mei almost took out all the missiles that were about to expire.
The U.S. military is now unsustainable.
After all, it will take a long time for a military factory to transition to a wartime state. In World War II, the United States stayed away from the flames of war and quietly engaged in production across the Atlantic, and it took almost a year for the country to transform into a wartime economic system. Even if more than half a century has passed, it will be difficult for the United States to produce 10,000 rounds of cruise missiles in one day.
Now the portal can't be blocked.
I heard that if you close the portal, you will have to fight an interstellar war with the star fortress opposite the portal, and the reinstated President Richard really hurts.
"Can you nuke the fortress on the other side?" the president asked his staff.
"Although we can change the thrusters of nuclear missiles to a mode that is suitable for use outside the atmosphere, how to get the nuclear bomb to fly to the opponent's fortress is a big problem. According to the information interrogated by the [Avengers], the other party not only has a very powerful energy shield, but also a large number of patrols, and all kinds of different caliber fortress guns that we have never heard of. The staff wiped a cold sweat.
"This ...... Is the Earth going to die?" the president sat down in his chair in a gloomy manner.
At this time, Peggy Carter received a newsletter.
"Mr. President, Mr. Strange has something special to report. ”
"Take it in. ”
In the picture, Mei Jiecao's face soon appeared. The President noticed that around the May Exercises, the heroes of the Avengers were still fighting against the Zetari army that had fallen from the sky.
"I'm President Richard, and I'm listening. ”
"Another hydrogen bomb with a 1 million tons of TNT equivalent will be launched at New York. ”
"There's nothing wrong with that, but are you sure it works?" the president was the man who had launched a nuclear bomb once, and at this point, he also broke the canister and broke it: "Do you want something more powerful? Big Ivan asked us if we wanted a big guy with 5,000 tons of TNT equivalent." ”
Mei Jiecao rolled her eyes.
The most terrible nuclear bomb on earth is not in the United States, but on Maozi's side.
When they detonated a large bomb in the northern part of the Soviet Union, the riot caused by this test explosion was felt by almost the entire earth, because the power of the explosion broke off the connection between the satellite and the earth. It also shifted the entire Eurasian continent by 9 mm.
Many people may say that this 9 mm is not a big deal, but you should know that the continental plate moves very slowly, maybe 1 cm a year, so you may be able to feel how powerful this hydrogen bomb is.
The 5,000-ton equivalent of the big bomb, if you don't get one right, it will explode before the portal, so it's interesting.
This super nuclear bomb, the light produced when it explodes, alone is enough to blind a person 220 kilometers away.
A nuclear bomb sinks the footbasin, and that's no joke.
Listening to the president's pretending to be calm but actually trembling, he knew that President Richard was also under a lot of pressure. If the nuclear bomb really exploded in New York, whether this alien invasion could be prevented or not, he would be a sinner for the ages of America.
Mei Jiecao shook his head: "It doesn't need to be that powerful. I want three ordinary nuclear missiles with a TNT yield of 200,000 tons. Modifications are also not required. Just shoot near the Empire State Building. ”
An air explosion of a nuclear bomb with a TNT equivalent of 200,000 tons (200-500 meters above the ground) can completely destroy the urban area of a medium-sized city (10-15 kilometers in diameter) made of reinforced concrete, with a 60-80% probability of killing people without defense.
Mei Jiecao estimated that it was enough to blow up the first temple number.
"No need to retrofit?" the president was stunned: "Our engineers said that they could be retrofitted into extra-atmospheric ...... in 24 hours."
"It's too late. Wait one more day, how many people will die. ”
These words pierced the hearts of all high-ranking officials in Washington.
The attack on New York was enough of a headache for them. If the war spreads to the whole world, it will naturally be everyone's responsibility. If you are afraid, you will be afraid of suffering, and Lao Mei will be her own family.
No matter what time it is, the half-war is the worst.
Either hurry up and end this war, or everyone together.
If there is a choice, of course the former.
"What about the Star Fortress's energy shields and patrols?"
Mei Mumu was firm: "As long as the nuclear missile is launched in New York, the rest is the matter of Master Kama Taj." If I fail, you can think about Plan B. ”
No one could have guessed what method Mei Jiecao would use against the Zetarian Star Fortress.
On the other hand, it's definitely cost-effective.
The stock of conventional missiles in the United States is not too exaggerated, but in comparison, nuclear bombs are absolutely sufficient. During the Cold War, the United States left behind thousands of nuclear bombs in military competition with the Soviet Union. Although a lot of nuclear bomb destruction agreements have been signed, who doesn't secretly keep a lot of undisclosed nuclear bombs?
In fact, compared with conventional missiles, these nuclear bombs are really unusable, take up special space, and require high maintenance costs.
Now Mei Jiecao only needs three nuclear missiles, and the price is really low.
Compared with the pensions of tens of thousands of army soldiers, it is even less worth mentioning.
Almost without consideration, the president and the other generals looked at each other and nodded in unison.
"If you want a nuclear bomb, we can launch it at any time. ”
"Okay, I'm going to come over in two batches of nuclear missiles......"
Half an hour later, the nuclear missiles set off in two batches.
The strategy is to simply cultivate the lowly way in the open, and to show the warehouse in the dark.
The U.S. military gritted its teeth and organized a large fleet of more than 100 fighters at a time to cover the bombers in it. In fact, the division of labor of modern fighters has become a bit blurred, and multi-purpose fighters are the most popular concept.
Bomber...... In fact, it is just a disguise.
