Subs with nukes is all you need to keep your country safe

What do you do if somebody attacks you with something in between a strongly worded letter and an atom bomb?

>>33948021
You nuke them.

>Somali pirates rape and murder your entire country and laugh as you nuke Somalia.

>>33948032
this. You are gonna have to nuke a couple shitty countries before the other ones catch on that you mean business.

How do you deal with rebels backed by a foreign power ?

>>33948118
Nuke the foreign power.

>>33948118
Start nuking countries until all the rebels and their supporters are dead

>>33948004
How do you handle a civil war?

>>33948118

that's a law enforcement problem, just give them bigger guns

mexico did that during the cristero war and it worked out very well

>>33948148
Tactical nukes.

>>33948118
That's more of a matter of diplomacy and other stealthy politics.
If a foreign power is backing rebels then you either address it directly or tip toe around it like America has been doing for the past 17 years with Al Queda.

worked well in Syria.

>>33948034
Seriously. It's like op time traveled from wwii where all enemies wore a uniform and pledged allegiance to a piece of land within clearly defined borders.

>nuke the entirety of western europe
>nuke turkey and drop a lot of radioactive waste in northern africa and middle east
>now you have a invisible wall that gives cancer to whoever tries to cross it by land

What if the foreign power is a sovereign fleet of nuclear submarines?

>>33948004
and what happens when a foreign power funds a separatist/insurgency movement within your boarders, or a puppet nation decides to annex a good trade partner?

Ballistic Missile subs are only one aspect of nuclear deterrence. Don't be stupid. I know this is bait, but it's still a good training opportunity.

How is an SSBN going to stop a 4GW insurgency?

There's more to defence than nuclear deterrence. It's important, but there's more to it.

Sort of like the USA.

QUESTION

How do you know which country a nuke was launched from if it was from a sub?

Or are subs actually pretty well monitored and impossible to escape from detection?

note: Like an aicraft carrier is ridiculously easy to see. Doesn't mean you can attack it easily though.

>>33948004
thats why NORKs are building them.

that Kim is a fucking idot but building sub nukes is the smartest thing he's doing. he knows the US won't be able to fuck him like they fucked Ghadaffi and Saddam.

SSBNs are supposed to be invisible.
Only 5 countries have SSBNs - US, UK, France, China and Russia, so that narrows the list of potential aggressors down.
