The lead plane, called the Neccessary Evil, is carrying a 15-kiloton “Bedivere” class nuclear bomb, the same power as the Little Boy bomb. At 0750 hours, the Squadron is spotted by Vietnamese lookouts at Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) but is deemed a reconnaissance mission. At 0810 hours, Vietnamese commanders finally realise the cold reality of the situation, and scramble their planes, but it is too late.



The explosion kills 30,000 people. A fire rages through the rest of the city, and kills a further 3,000. 7,000 will die of radiation sickness in the coming months. The Vietnamese government, including Le Duan, are all killed (Ho Chi Minh excluded as he’s in Romania or something).

Churchill announces the bomb attack the following morning. There are mixed reactions, mostly positive as Britons feel Vietnam deserved this for the gas attacks on Manchester. Churchill warns Britain has many more nukes, and is able and willing to do this again. China is warned to withdraw, or face a similar fate to its major cities. You hit the Wrong Capital City. It is Hanoi and not Ho Chi Minh City. You did not kill Le Duan. He is in Hanoi and after hearing the explosion in Ho Chi Minh City, he flies out of the city and begins to fly to Madagascar for refuge. A Massive funeral is launched and the Vietnamese vow for revenge
