nuclear bunkers
Atomic war hideouts
Nuclear bunkers are fortified underground shelters designed to protect occupants from nuclear blasts, radiation, and fallout.
Governments built them during the Cold War for military command and continuity of leadership.
Some private citizens construct personal bunkers for survivalist purposes: The billionaire's compound included a nuclear bunker stocked with supplies for a year.
