IMHO, not really. You have Cheyene Mountain, Col. Instant communications to ALL missle command bases and ALL SAC bases and through low freq, communications to Posidon and Trident Missle Boats. IF you play BIG BANG is in 1987, there is communications to and from Cheyene to Looking Glass air craft.

You also have instant communications from POTUS to Cheyene, you have instant communications from DEW line and other sensor arrays in northern Alaska and Northern Canada. There is instant access to whatever satellites were available in 1987.

I just do not see Damocles being in UP as that big a problem.
