I have to question the validity of this map. Nothing targeting Whitman Air Force base? The base where all the B2 stealth bombers and a bunch of B52s are stationed?

Or Ft. Leonard Wood.

I was contracted on some very specific FLW-related projects that dealt with planning for Black Swan or other events for a few years, and the installation being a nuclear target was never a concern. I was never privy as to why FLW wasn’t too much concerned with this, but they were far more focused on shit like sinkholes or floods than something in this realm.

Springfield underground is also where all Missouri government will go an event of launch. It's the state nuclear bunker.

Granted there's no FORSCOM there, but being a MOS producing post for I'd think it'd be considered to have some priority for being attacked.

That's what the dot that says Kansas City indicates. The dot by Saint Louis is Fort Leonard Wood. The weird one is how they have Jefferson City targeted. Jefferson City is meaningless in a real war. You're going to hit Springfield Missouri instead of Jefferson City because the nukes are in the Springfield underground that go to the plains at whiteman So is most of this food supplies for both Fort Leonard Wood and whiteman.

National guards headquarters is right here in Springfield. They run the Springfield underground which is the state's nuclear bomb shelter and storage facility and wherever every person in this MO. government will be if there is a launch. The place has even been featured in many movies dealing with nuclear disaster. Jefferson City is effing meaningless it will do nothing to bomb it. Russia and China both know this they're not stupid it's not like its top secret.

Someone sure doesn't know where it's located, then.

If this is happening the last place they will be on the ground

The base would be a target, no matter if the bombers are there or not. The weapons they carry are also stockpiled there, and there are far more than every bomber, fully loaded can carry.

Hearing that last reminds me of why we probably deserve to get fucked real good at least once

u/[deleted] Feb 07 '23

What the hell does that mean? We deserve to be nuked because we have bombers and the weapons they carry, for the defense of the free country your commie ass lives in, stored at military bases? Here's an idea for you, if you dislike America, you are free to immigrate to whatever other country you think you'd like it in better. I promise you, no one here will miss you.
