Juniper’s Daughter: Frontier Town by Nick Armbrister
In France not a single town or city remained standing, in revenge for
firing several hundred nuclear missiles at England, Wales and Scotland. The tri
manned Trident nuclear missile carrying submarines launched almost every weapon
at the French. Many French towns and cities were hit by up to three or more
weapons, Paris were hit by seven 475 kiloton nuclear warheads. Not even London
was hit so badly, it received just a single bomb like Leeds. Due to the size
the city the outskirts survived but huge areas were radioactive with fallout.
The only people alive in France were country people, not living in the built up
areas and radiation covered most of the rural areas so many people left alive
were slowly dying from the contamination. It wasn’t a functioning country, it
was a destroyed country twice as badly hit as the landmass of Great Britain, a
nuclear nightmare that killed and had polluted the oceans and land of many
other countries bordering GB and France.
France had used submarine launched medium range missiles from her four
nuclear missiles submarines, only two firing due to the others being sunk by
the Royal Navy. French Air Force Mirage 2000N and Rafale nuclear strike
fighters carrying Aerospatiale nuclear tipped cruise missiles had hit some cities;
Leeds and London were perfect examples of a big bomb on a medium/large size
city. The submarine launched missiles each carried six 150-kiloton nuclear
warheads with a total of sixteen missiles fired from two French nuclear missile
subs giving a total of 192 separate warheads. Each the same size of 150-kilotons.
Combined with the big one megaton bombs on the Aerospatiale cruise missiles
from the fighters, this was a huge amount of nuclear fire power delivered
against cities, towns, harbours, oil refineries, military barracks, bases,
ports/harbours, air bases, aircraft factories and dozens more targets in
England, Scotland and Wales. The newly independent countries weren’t spared due
to alleged sympathies with England. Not a single French sub launched nuclear
missile was intercepted and shot down; indeed no defences were in place to
shoot down any incoming missile. Out of 32 missiles launched from the two
submarines that survived to launch, two failed, one whose solid fuel rocket
engine failed to ignite before it fell back into the ocean and the other didn’t
achieve the right trajectory, heading off the Atlantic where it splashed down
with its warheads still inside the missile. In total 180 French submarines
launched warheads hit England, Scotland and Wales; not a single warhead failed
due to the superb reliability of the design. Both missiles submarines were
hunted down and sunk by the remaining ships of the Royal Navy after firing
their weapons. In turn some of the RN ships were sunk by aircraft and missiles
from the two French aircraft carriers; these being engaged by the two carriers
of the Royal Navy in a bitter no holds air to sea battle. All four aircraft
carriers were sunk along with three quarters of the supporting destroyers and
submarines; nothing survived this mini Armageddon in the North Sea, Channel,
Atlantic and Mediterranean by the powerful navies of England and France. Of the
French air launched cruise missiles several were shot down by RAF Typhoon
fighters after launch, not an easy job considering the missiles was a small
fast stealthy target that flew at low altitude. Many French Mirage and Rafale
nuclear strike fighters were shot down before launch, picked up by RAF AWACS
radar planes as they took off from their bases and headed low to try and hide
under the radar. Fifteen one-megaton Aerospatiale cruise missiles hit towns,
cities and other targets killing millions of people, one was targeted at Oldham
and the aeroplane factory there but the strike fighter carrying the missile was
shot down before it could launch, saving the town. No French airbases or
aircraft carriers remained for any surviving Mirage 2000N or Rafale to return
to, the crews flew until they ran out of fuel and crashed, ejected or landed in
other countries to have their fighter planes impounded and pilots interned.
The Royal Navy, England’s senior service, defended England and also
Wales and Scotland. With superior submarines and better missiles and more
aggressive tactics, each submarine launched its Trident D5 nuclear missiles at
France hitting towns, cities, airbases, factories and everything else that made
France a 21st Century nation. A total of 64 missiles were launched
at targets in France, one missiles failed to ignite its seconds stage and it
fell back into the ocean along with its eight warheads, the remaining missiles
each carried eight four hundred and seventy five kiloton nuclear warheads – a
total of 504. Every one of these detonated at a French target totally wiping
France off the map, seven bombs in revenge hit Paris for the single hit on
London. After the war? People left alive suffered slow deaths from radiation or
blast injuries; just a few small towns remained in France with shell-shocked
inhabitants.
In the
landmass of Great Britain roughly half of the large towns and cities had been
hit and destroyed with casualties of up to one hundred percent, London suffered
greatly and much of the outskirts were untouched but suffered bad fallout.
Three quarters of military bases were hit, the civil war hit the British Army
badly with units in Wales and Scotland belonging to the new nations, so the
already depleted English army was down to just twenty thousand men, a few heavy
vehicles and helicopters and the few RN missiles and warheads that weren’t on
the lost subs now passing to the army, after the nuclear exchange. The Royal
Air Force was wiped out losing every single airbase; the dozen fighter planes
that survived the air battles intact either force landed on open roads and
motorways or flew to Germany or Spain. There they remained with the crews being
interned like the French planes that survived this hideous little war.
