The Sixteen Minute War as it is known in the Federal Republic of New York and Jersey was the nations first and only nuclear strike upon an established nation. It was also the first in a series of conflicts with Abu Dhabi Khristian which are known as the Relocation Wars. The direct cause of The Sixteen Minute War has always been publically stated by the NYNJ government as being for the benefit of mankind.
The contributing factor of the attack can be traced to several reasons. In the nation of Abu-Dhabi Khirstian a bloody civil war had raged for nearly a week claiming millions of lives on both sides and caused two orbital colonies to fall toward the direction of the Earth. These two impacts had a detremental affect on the planet and lead to slight shifts in the global weather pattern. In New York City rather than risk the planet reaching the point of another iceage the order was given to the recently aquired Federal Stellar Navy to put an end to conflict by any and all means.
On the early morning of January 15th 2152 the combined Federal Stellar Navy comprised then of only three fleets sent a clear message to both parties in the ADK War. "You are to cease any and all hostilities or we will be forced to take action." The ultimatium however went unanswered and sixteen minutes later a sustained orbital strike commenced. A total of 1,600 1 kiloton nuclear weapons were fired from orbiting warships upon the nation of Abu-Dhabi Khristian. The tactic employed by the New York New Jersey fleet was called a Nuclear Decapitation strike.
Four waves had been fired, the first targeting radar, military and ground based ABM facilities. The second had targeted power lines, power plants, substations, rail yards, and road junctures. The third targeted industrial centers and storage yards while the final wave went after the major cities. An unconfirmed report stated that two 20 Megaton missiles had been fired at the capital in an attempt to wipe out everyone and ensure the government would not survive. These claims can not be substaintated due to the removal of the native ADK population and even the removal of the entire ADK nation itself by the Sentient Peoples.
From the time of the first missile launch to the very last, a total of sixteen minutes had gone by. Losses on the side of Abu-Dhabi Khristain are unknown but estimated to be in the millions while losses on the Federal Republic side are reported and confirmed to be none.
