WIA-DEF-014

☢️ Overview

WIA-DEF-014 establishes comprehensive standards for nuclear defense systems, encompassing detection, protection, deterrence, and response capabilities against nuclear threats. This standard covers nuclear weapon detection systems, radiation monitoring networks, blast protection infrastructure, electromagnetic pulse (EMP) hardening, and strategic command and control for nuclear forces. It ensures interoperability between early warning systems, missile defense integration, and continuity of government operations.

💻 API Example

import { NuclearDefense } from '@wia/def-014';

// Initialize nuclear defense monitoring system
const nuclearDef = new NuclearDefense({
  systemId: 'NUCDEF-CONUS-001',
  alertLevel: 'DEFCON-3',
  sensorNetwork: {
    satellites: ['DSP-1', 'DSP-2', 'SBIRS-GEO-1', 'SBIRS-GEO-2'],

    radiationDetectors: 'national-network'
  },
  authentication: {
    palSystem: true,
    twoPersonRule: true
  }
});

// Monitor for nuclear threats

    responseLevel: 'maximum',
    notificationChain: ['POTUS', 'SECDEF', 'CJCS']
  });
});

// Check radiation monitoring network
const radiationStatus = await nuclearDef.getRadiationLevels({
  region: 'nationwide',
  threshold: 'background + 2-sigma'
});

console.log(`Active sensors: ${radiationStatus.activeSensors}`);
console.log(`Average background: ${radiationStatus.avgBackground} μSv/h`);

// Test EMP hardening status
const empStatus = await nuclearDef.testEMPProtection({
