A nuclear weapons effects simulator built from declassified Cold War physics research. Every calculation uses original government source documents—no approximations or simplified models.
Key Features
- Blast, Thermal, & Fallout — Complete physics from Glasstone & Dolan (1977), CEX-62.2 (1963), Miller (1963)
- Real Population Data — LandScan Global 2024 with 1km resolution worldwide
- Real-Time Weather — Live wind data for accurate fallout modeling
- Multi-Detonation Scenarios — Model up to 3,000 simultaneous strikes

Effects vary with weapon design, atmospheric conditions, terrain, and countless other factors. Estimates only—not suitable for emergency planning.
