"Davy Crockett was a recoilless gun on a tripod for firing the M-388 atomic round
The M-28 or M-29 Davy Crockett Weapon System was the tactical nuclear recoilless gun (smoothbore) for firing the M-388 nuclear projectile that was deployed by the United States during the Cold War. It was one of the smallest nuclear weapon systems ever built, with a yield between 10 and 20 tons TNT equivalent (40–80 gigajoules). It is named after American folk hero, soldier, and congressman Davy Crockett." -Wikipedia
Federation
Used under multiple names such as: Thunderbolt, Meteor, or Reckoning. The launcher was used to deliver boost after launch, laser guided nuclear warheads to the battlefield. With the development of warheads with non Fission triggers, the Federation was able to deploy these weapons in the battle field and advance into enemy territory right afterwards as the threat of radiation was extremely low.

Still the most epic build.
Epic build
Great build!
@Pilotmario (suddenly absurd amounts of electromagnetic defense measures and missile systems)
@RocCrafter101 suddenly nuclear bunker buster crashes through
@Pilotmario
It’s fun when you’re not the one getting them.
(Sits safely inside bunker surrounded by mountains in a secret location)
@RocCrafter101 Idk. I don't think dying from radiation burns is fun.
@Pilotmario
But where’s the fun in that?
@RocCrafter101 Or or or
You could not give a 2nd lieutenant the ability to start World War III.
@Pilotmario Or or or
We can use our own 155mm to fire nuclear rounds :v
Because tbh, after nuclear war. Everyone would be tossing nukes left and right.
@RocCrafter101 Or get it deleted by Paternian 155mm howitzers while forming up in a rear staging area.
@Pilotmario Our version fires boost after launch laser guided projectiles. Which possibly pose a problem with firing over mountains due to lasers requiring line of sight. Drones providing spotting would be knocked out by the shockwaves. Mount it on a truck and charge into battle. Blow up a tank batallion in a single shot.
@RocCrafter101 It also has neither the range to hit anything of value, nor the accuracy to hit anything if the range permits.
Heck, a 120mm mortar team could easily knock it out.
@Pilotmario eh, well assuming nuclear war does take place between us. Assuming both of us choose to continue to fight. Davy Crockett is better, faster response. Along with the ability to launch more of em.
@RocCrafter101 Pershing II batteries are under the command of a captain or major.
@randomusername Yup I’ll link it soon. I assume you mean the skybox.
@Pilotmario Don’t you have SRBMs which would pretty much do the same thing as this. There are also other ways to deploy nuclear devices tactically. Such as ones specially designed to fill the firepower gaps between modern conventional and nuclear weapons.
Do you want a Second Lieutenant to start World War III? Because that's how you get Second Lieutenants starting World War III.
