A nuclear bomb could go from Russia to the US in 10 mins???

You think you bad? You ain't bad!
I'ma go practice the cossack dance right quick, no reason why...
the same how a missile would just that it would be equip with a nuclear warhead, for that type of distance it would be on a missle
Missiles using a ballistic trajectory usually deliver a warhead over the horizon, at distances of hundreds up to thousands of kilometers, as in the case of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) and submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs). Most ballistic missiles exit the Earth's atmosphere and re-enter it in their sub-orbital spaceflight.
An intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) is a ballistic missile with a range of more than 5,000 km (3,100 miles) typically designed for nuclear weapons delivery (delivering one or more nuclear warheads). Most modern designs support multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles (MIRVs), allowing a single missile to carry several warheads, each of which can strike a different target.
The following flight phases can be distinguished:
boost phase: 3 to 5 minutes (shorter for a solid rocket than for a liquid-propellant rocket); altitude at the end of this phase is typically 150 to 400 km depending on the trajectory chosen, typical burnout speed is 7 km/s, up to the speed of Low Earth Orbit.
midcourse phase: approx. 25 minutessub-orbital spaceflight in an elliptic flightpath; the flightpath is part of an ellipse with a vertical major axis; the apogee (halfway through the midcourse phase) is at an altitude of approximately 1,200 km; the semi-major axis is between 3,186 km and 6,372 km; the projection of the flightpath on the Earth's surface is close to a great circle, slightly displaced due to earth rotation during the time of flight; the missile may release several independent warheads, and penetration aids such as metallic-coated balloons, aluminum chaff, and full-scale warhead decoys.
reentry phase (starting at an altitude of 100 km): 2 minutes impact is at a speed of up to 4 km/s (for early ICBMs less than 1 km/s); see also maneuverable reentry vehicle.
UGM-133 Trident II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Purpose: strategic nuclear deterrence
Unit Cost: US$30.9 million
Range: > 11,300 kilometres (7,000 mi)
Maximum speed: > 6,000 m/s (>21,000 km/h, >13,422 mph).[2]
Guidance system: inertial, with Star-Sighting; GPS experiments done but not deployed.
CEP: Requirement: 90–120 m (300–400 ft). That demonstrated by flight tests is significantly better.
Warhead (in USA usage only): nuclear MIRV Up to four W88 (475 kt) warheads (Mark 5) or eight W76 (100 kt) warheads (Mark 4). The Trident II can carry 12 MIRV warheads but START I reduces this to eight and SORT reduces this yet further to four or five.

shyt. Once that thang is in the air, theres no running. You could get in your car and drive as fast as you can from the city and you'd still get touched, especially with everyone panicking on the freeway. Check out this app. Uses google maps to show you the damage one of them thangs would cause. Even has an asteroid. Demonic. I dont even think a plane would save u from a asteroid

damn breh I put an asteroid impact in the middle of the Pacific and it still took out some countries
If you click the location tab it tells you the damage that it will cause. After you get past purple, you ok. If you purple you walkin like this nikka.
yall nikka in bigger cities are fukked
They going after New York and the whole east coast is done

Change is inevitable...
That's why there's not gonna be a "World War III". All major players got that finisher.

sit your dumbazz down

Damn that's crazy. But what about our missile defense system? Does that work against nukes? We gotta have something that could intercept that tom brady bullet, right?
...right???
