62 nuclear war targets

Which cities are bombed in a 1962 war? Would Hong Kong be bombed by the Soviets? Dose China want Hong Kong bombed? Would Japanese cities with no US basses be targeted as-well?
 
Going by feel alone, I think Japan would come out pretty well out of this. The Soviets might target Sasebo or Yokosuka, but I don't see them bombing Japan "back to the Stone Age", so to say; the Yanks are the main enemy alongside NATO in Europe.
 
here is my map from Cuban Missile War by Amerigo Vespucc

the Targets include Military bases, airfields, HQ, Missile sites also the Bunkers and administration centers.
also use of tactical Nukes against enemy forces
 
If I remember correctly in 1962 the US have a 10 to 1 ratio over the Soviets in strategic nuclear weapons and about a 1 to 5 ratio over the Soviets in tactical weapons.

It will be a bloodbath on both sides but at the end of it the West will probably only lose a 10 to 20% of their population while the Soviets will be looking at 75%+ and a good 95%+ of their industry.

it will be more
according SIOP-62 document, SAC had "deliver" to EACH soviet target THREE nukes with minimum 80 kilotons TNT
alone for Moscow SAC planned to drop 100 MEGATONS on soviet capitol and soundings (By MRBM, ICBM, Bomber, SLBM)
That deadly radioactive Fallout and fallout coming from West (by Soviet Nukes) will put a shroud on USSR
following after effect of Atomic war, i think under 10 % of soviet population will survive after 1962.
