The one consider that one Minuteman III missile can carry up to 12 of those W87 warheads, which were originally meant for the Peacekeeper Missile system. The W87 does about 400 KT of damage. According to the Ground Zero Map http://www.carloslabs.com/projects/200712B/GroundZero.html that can be, roughly, a radius of 6.5 miles of damage in all directions from the epicenter. Now the Minuteman can carry 12 400 KT warheads. Math? Heh, that's a 4800 Kilotons per Minuteman or 4.8 Megatons. How many Minutemen does the US have in stockpile, after SORT? 1,050 land based ICBMs. More math?

1,050 Land Base Nuclear Devices
12 Warheads per device
400 KT per Warhead

Total warheads per weapon 12,600. Did I mention that those warheads can be guided to different targets? That's, roughly, 5.04 Gigatons of TNT. Those are just the land based missile systems. That's not counting the Airborne nukes, or the Ohio Class Nuclear subs.

5.04 Giga, fuck, tons of TNT. When they say they are getting rid of their nukes, I chortle.

My numbers may be off I'm by no means an expert, also note that I would assume all 1,050 Minuteman ICBMs cannot be launched at the same time. I just really like large numbers and who gets to write Giga fuck tons of TNT every day?
