Iron Man vs Our Planet

the tsar bomba had a blast radius of about 35 km, the fireball at the center of the explosion was about 3 km in radius

I tend to think Iron Man's propulsion systems can probably move faster than anything we equip our ICBMs with, and his sensors could easily pick them up. I can't fathom the situation where we are creating a large enough nuclear blast that he couldn't outrun, especially considering he could just fly up.

All things being equal, if we did use enough nukes to defeat him, there would hardly be a RL world left to be considered the winner

pyrrhic victory ftw

scorched earth

just **** stuff up so bad he doesn't want to win anymore

we could threaten to nuke our own world to oblivion

That's really not a "win" though is it?

Everything's better than directly loosing to an alcoholic.

Well, it depends if Tony would try to save us from ourselves, which, considering his personality/CIS, is plausible.

If he didn't care, he could just go into space and either call the bluff or watch us murder ourselves.

I haven't read all previous pages, but...doesn't Stark require a major infrastructure for maintaining and upgrading the armor? How vulnerable are these facilities?

Iron Man wins in any direct military confrontation (not sure about nukes). But it's a big planet. I would imagine that sooner or later we would outthink or outlast him.

Yeah unless this is a Stark with CIS off (IE using terror tactics and such) I don't see him forcing the world to submit.

Now crippling its ability to challenge him in a direct fight is another matter entirely.

Yeah, Turkey is about as good an ally as you can get. Not like those American and their economical crises or those Pakistani with their Indian hate. People should learn from Turkey flirt

But Muslim countries wouldn't exactly rush to defend them.. It would be seriously difficult getting the whole world to fight together.

That they do. Against most opponents the numbers they have would hurt the most.

I'll grant that I undersold India's practical experience, but these conflicts were mostly border skirmishes and as memory serves India lost or drew in almost all of them.

All other conflicts(which mostly involved Pakistan) saw India coming out at the top, with the 1971 war resulting in the creation of a separate state(Bangladesh) and the acquisition of 90000 POWs.

I also think you oversold Israel's military capabilities in your previous posts, but smh to that I guess.
