Map of CONUS Nuke strikes.

[Benjamin]

Very cool. Is there anyway to add the Canadian strikes that are visible on the map?

And I'm pretty sure that the CONUS strategic target list in V2 is the same as the list from V1. I'll double check on that using the Challenge article and Howling Wilderness.

If someone provides me with any canon strike lists (Canada, USSR, UK, etc) I can add those points and map them. I know I have them somewhere but coding is more fun than digging through files . Additional strikes are easy it is just a matter of adding new long/lat points to the database along with a warhead size.

Eventually this will all be added to my gaming maps system, but I still have a lot of work to do on the difference between overpressure and heat radii, and ground versus airburst.

I have my scanner up and running now and so I can get you the lists as per V1 or V2. All you need to do is send me an email and I'll reply in a bit with pdfs.

I'm pretty sure V1 and V2 hit lists are the same so either one should suffice.

If you can point me to book name and page numbers that should be enough.

After reading over them, I can say that the Hit Lists for V1 and V2 are essentially the same.

Since you're using V2.2 "the Big Yellow Book" I'll give you those page numbers.

British Nuclear Targets, page 226 (This lists only cities not what was actually targeted.)

US Nuclear Targets, page 235 (I actually typed this out before remembering that there's a good chance you already had this list.)

Canadian Nuclear Targets, page 236. (Like the US target list this only includes major strategic targets, not the smaller tactical warheads.)

U.S.S.R. Nuclear Targets, page 239. (Other than a few spelling differences this is the same list that originally appeared in Challenge #33.)

Hope this makes the endeavor a bit easier.

Thanks for the data. I have my hands full with over 2200 warheads hitting the US for the Morrow Project version of the map. I'll dig into the Canadian and UK ones pretty quick. The Russian ones might have to wait as I am sure geocoding them (determining long/lat) will be made more difficult by language differences.

If a warhead size is not listed I will just make it 500kt.

Added a map to the British targets here British Nuclear Targets Map. I did not go with only 500kt for the British targets. I threw in a few 750 and 1MT for larger cities.

Canada and the USSR are going to take longer due to the size of the maps. A curse on Flemish geographer and cartographer Gerardus Mercator and his dammed projections.
