VigilantWatcher Posted June 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) Classified West African Strategic Forces formed. SS-1E Scud-D Tactical Ballistic Missile Fifty on Mobile Transport Erector Launchers Ten in Static Missile Sites OTR-23 Oka Tactical Ballistic Missile (SS-23 Spider) Sixty on Mobile Transport Erector Launchers Current Operational Status of the West African Strategic Forces is non functional due to logistical problems. Their stock of obsolete missiles are only ten per cent operational with lack of fuel and personnel being important factors. With the country still in its early days, the likelihood of any missile testing is currently remote. West African Air Force All Tu-22M "Backfire" Strategic Bombers upgraded to Tu-22M3 "Backfire C" Strategic Bomber variant. One Hundred and Eighty Miles East of Yaounde A Secret Thirty Square Mile Military Complex codenamed Viper Base had been created for the West African Republic Military's Black Projects. The first project to start at the base was the attempt to build nuclear weapons. The enrichment of the uranium to create uranium 235 was well under way with a few pounds of uranium 235 already stockpiled. This would be done through a Gas Centrifuge. A Gas Centrifuge is a device that performs isotope separation of gases. A centrifuge relies on the principles of centripetal force accelerating molecules so that particles of different masses are physically separated in a gradient along the radius of a rotating container. A prominent use of gas centrifuges is for the separation of uranium 235 from uranium 238. A fission reactor was also under construction to create the fission reactions and covert the uranium into plutonium 239 for the test bomb. Public The West African Republic Bank or the Afrique de l'Ouest Banque Fédérale de la République was today created with major branches created in the Capital Yaounde and the second city Douala, with many smaller branches all over the country. President Stanley Mgambo has also today announced that all major roads will be modernised to decrease vehicle accident related deaths in the West African Republic.

VigilantWatcher Posted June 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Classified The West African Republic's first Military Satellite WAR-1 and a Civilian Satellite named XB-4 One on top of separate rockets at the main launch facility fourty miles north east of Douala. WAR-1 was a Reconnaissance Satellite for High Resolution Photography (IMINT), Measurement and Signature Intelligence(MASINT), Communications Eavesdropping (SIGINT), Covert Communications and Detection of Missile Launches. XB-4 was a communications and navigational satellite for use by the West African People. It would provide internet and satellite television plus Global Position System navigation for the planned introduction of satellite navigation devices for vehicles and also for air traffic control. At around six am local time, both satellites were launched into Medium Level Orbit and they began immediately enter operation. ------------------------------------- Major equipment changes in the West African Army under way.

The first test bomb was planned to have a power of one hundred kilotons and have a uranium core and the trigger would be an gun trigger one. The second test bomb would have a plutonium core and an implosion trigger. Viper Base Nuclear Test Site Two B-52H Stratofortress Strategic Bombers droned overhead, armed with the test devices. As they approached the first target, the first bomber dropped the uranium test bomb and swung away. Seconds later the device exploded, sending a small mushroom cloud upwards. The flash incinerated the mock target while the shock wave blasted several trees near the site down. The second B-52H carrying the slightly more powerful two hundred kiloton Plutonium Bomb approached to the east of the first blast to avoid being caught in the mushroom cloud before dropping its bomb. The aircraft pitched to the right and raced south. The bomb exploded with a even greater flash and blast wave, causing more damage to the second target. The nuclear age in the West African Republic had begun. Work was now under way to create a Thermonuclear Device. At the same time, effort would then be made to develop a Nuclear Warhead for the soon to be introduced RSD-10 Pioneer Intermediate Ballistic Missile.
