Q15 (worth 4 points) This is one time only we’ll never have a 4 point question in the competition again so ready? Name at least 2 areas within the Soviet Union where the SS18 missile fields were located.
A. Zhangiz-Tobe, Semipalatinsk Oblast and Derzhavinsk, Turgay Oblast. Both within Kazakhstan.
(Man, there's not much info out about these big boys!)
Edited to correct question number

There's two Q13s. Do they add up to 5 pts?
Q11: Tirpitz
Just bought 3 Lancaster with Tallboys to sink it. Not GHQ unfortunately.
