I recently saw a comment chain about nuclear bombs, and that led me to thinking about this. Say there is a nuclear explosion in the downtown of my US city. I survive relatively fine, but obviously the main part of the city has been destroyed, while major zones extending from the center were also badly damaged. What would be a good response to (a) survive and (b) help out the recovery effort?

    I just assumed they would want to hit major infrastructure like airports, depots and such. Now my new fear is they don’t nuke the airport at all. Im like at 3rd degree awefulness distance.

      airstrips longer than 1600m (iirc) were at some point designated as strategic targets by soviets, so you assumed correctly
