So far I have mostly nuclear based systems in mind-one that uses an over-sized fusion bomb in with a yield of something like 1000-3000 megatons that's incorporated into a massive bunker buster style system, the idea being that it punches through rock deep into the earth and explodes to create a massive localized earthquake while simultaneously contaminating the groundwater, but also doesn't have quite as severe a surface effect as a traditional weapon, ie, you can move in easily and rebuild afterwards and have to worry less about fallout and shit.

How you'd get such a massive bunker buster deployed flummoxes me a bit-you'd need a massive, easy to shoot down rocket, or to chuck it down from space, which has its own shortcomings. Could a massive drilling machine perhaps be the best way to sneak it in? Maybe you could use it to hold a nation hostage by putting one under their city and then gently letting them know?

A shaped charge style nuke would be good for this, that focused the force to the sides instead of into a perfect sphere, but I don't know how that would work.

guys guys

a ray gun that turns people into kittens

totally would be the greatest weapon ever made

Anyone "weaponized" model rocket motors?

I imagine you could quite easily make a huey-style rocket pod. But what would be a worthwhile payload, besides silly things.

1000-3000 megatons.....

Anon..... that shit is big enough to irradiate most of the planet.

>1000-3000 megatons
>largest nuclear weapon ever tested was 50 megatons
>it was about the size of a small bus
>tested in the Kola Peninsula
>broke windows in Norway and Finland
do you even understand how big a megaton is?
>>
>>28283806
I might need a physicsfag to check it, but I think you could legitimatley blow up the moon with a 3000 megaton device.

Wheres oppenheimer when you need him....
>>
>>28283932

You could likely do it with less if you drilled into the moon fairly deeply

its like a firecracker - hold it lit on your palm and it goes bang, singing the palm - hold it in your closed fist however and you'll have a bloody arm stump and bight of hand splattered across the room

Wow, what a great analogy. You should do some writing. That could be like a radio or movie line.
