Today we’re going explore the unthinkable: How would the United States respond during a Nuclear conflict?
When we first came up with this concept, we aimed to cover the America's Nuclear Triad and it's Russian Nuclear War Plan in one concise video, but one video turned into three. So here's full version of "How Would the United States Fight a Nuclear War?" as it was originally intended. Enjoy!

"War does not determine who is right - only who is left." - B.Russell The nuclear arsenals of mass destruction, which are still not eliminated in spite of the UN charter, but well maintained and modernized and capable of multiple overkill, with whose deterrence powerful minorities may assert territorial claims to power and thereby put the entire human species and civilization at risk, although after an intentionally or unintentionally triggered nuclear war no more inhabitable territories remain in the following nuclear winter (which indicates an intelligence deficit bordering on mental derangement...) need - in contrast to the heavily thematized climate change - with escalating nuclear war only a few days for the irreversible extinction of the human species and civilization - already after 5 hours the entire death rate of the 6 years long raging 2nd world war (thus 60.000.000 dead) would be exceeded . That on Monday, the 26th September 1983 this irreversible downfall was prevented by the refusal of a firing order of the lieutenant colonel Stanislaw Petrow, who was on duty by proxy, which took place on wrongly interpreted observation data, is communicated remarkably just as little of the consequence of this decision appropriately for the public as the nuclear self-destruction capacity which is to be measured permanently ready after few days... What is to be thought of an "intelligent" species which accepts to be completely threatened with irreversible extinction by powerful minorities for the enforcement of competing power systems, and which invests so much money and technical know-how in the provision and maintenance of its own destruction ?

99% sure it's from the game DEFCON. Global thermonuclear war arcade simulator.
40 years ago I was a US Air Force pneumatic/hydraulic technician on the Titan II ICBM in the Wichita Kansas area. Our shop not only repaired hydraulic functions on the missile but also the pop-up antenna (that automatically raised after a nuclear attack), plus the locking lugs on the blast doors (these were the huge doors made of ferro-reinforced concrete in between the silo and the launch crew area to protect the crew long enough to turn the keys and launch the missile). Since our job was only to make sure the "bird" would actually work if the nuclear apocalypse happened, the Air Force taught us absolutely nothing about surviving a nuclear war, probably since it was pointless, and that was fine by me. Because one thing I realized on my own right away about surviving a nuclear war, is that I have no interest in surviving a nuclear war.

There will be no winners - mankind will have been destroyed for low motives of pretentious powerful minorities on highest technical level. Already after 5 hours of nuclear war the total death rate of the 6 years lasting 2nd world war will be exceeded (over 60.000.000 dead) - in the mutually assured annihilation there will be no major city with infrastructure on either side, the survivors will be wandering in a civilization desert without electricity and communication networks in the following nuclear winter realizing the irreversible extinction of their own species and civilization and envy the dead ... And mind you - this change by a nuclear war is not one of years, but of a few weeks. What is to be expected, I suppose, from an "intelligent" species that has taken from powerful minorities as an apparently reasonable price for the assertion of competing claims to power by means of the ready kept and well-behaved modernized nuclear arsenals of mass destruction with irreversible extinction in a nuclear holocaust and the following nuclear winter ?

Do you mean this? and I can only imagine how the system works to be honest. Fail-deadly is a concept in nuclear military strategy that encourages deterrence by guaranteeing an immediate, automatic, and overwhelming response to an attack, even if there is no one to trigger such retaliation. The term fail-deadly was coined as a contrast to fail-safe.

Having watched a nuclear war simulation in the command post of the local Air Base, many years ago. I realized that it would be impossible to get far enough away from the base to survive. I decided I’d just twist up a big fatty and go see what I trained for in elementary and middle school. It won’t last long enough to register in my brain before it’s over.

"War does not determine who is right - only who is left." - B.Russell The nuclear arsenals of mass destruction, which are still not eliminated in spite of the UN charter, but well maintained and modernized and capable of multiple overkill, with whose deterrence powerful minorities may assert territorial claims to power and thereby put the entire human species and civilization at risk, although after an intentionally or unintentionally triggered nuclear war no more inhabitable territories remain in the following nuclear winter (which indicates an intelligence deficit bordering on mental derangement...) need - in contrast to the heavily thematized climate change - with escalating nuclear war only a few days for the irreversible extinction of the human species and civilization - already after 5 hours the entire death rate of the 6 years long raging 2nd world war (thus 60.000.000 dead) would be exceeded . That on Monday, the 26th September 1983 this irreversible downfall was prevented by the refusal of a firing order of the lieutenant colonel Stanislaw Petrow, who was on duty by proxy, which took place on wrongly interpreted observation data, is communicated remarkably just as little of the consequence of this decision appropriately for the public as the nuclear self-destruction capacity which is to be measured permanently ready after few days... What is to be thought of an "intelligent" species which accepts to be completely threatened with irreversible extinction by powerful minorities for the enforcement of competing power systems, and which invests so much money and technical know-how in the provision and maintenance of its own destruction ?

Ever wonder why they put all those silo's through the plains as opposed to northern Alaska? Wouldn't it be a much shorter distance to travel, and make the first-strike target area well outside the continental heartland? This would also be a lot less missiles to try to sort out-intercept as they head toward military bases and population centers as well, should it elevate to that point.
Overwhelmingly and sadly sickening. That we can end life just like that. This is horrifying. Murder to it's fullest. It actually made me cry for any nation.

There's no chance that the US or Russia would engage in a nuclear war due to the harmful impact it would have on people and the environment. Despite possessing thousands of nuclear weapons, they could only safely use a small portion of them. This is because nuclear blasts would lead to a drop in global temperature, caused by burning cities and soot blocking sunlight. This would result in food shortages and a severely damaged atmosphere. In the event of multiple nuclear strikes, cities would burn, and the resulting smoke would block sunlight for decades, leading to worldwide food shortages and starvation.

While traditional agriculture heavily relies on sunlight for photosynthesis, there are alternative methods for food production that do not require direct sunlight. Indoor farming techniques such as hydroponics, aquaponics, and vertical farming can be implemented in controlled environments like underground bunkers or buildings with artificial lighting. These methods allow for the cultivation of various crops without relying on natural sunlight. Additionally, efforts to develop lab-grown or synthetic food products are ongoing, which could provide alternative sources of nutrition in post-nuclear scenarios.
Why can't we all just get along.
