Reply to comment by ppitm in Map published by FEMA showing potential US nuclear targets in 2,000 and 500 warhead scenarios. by busback

I don’t think BIW is worth using a nuclear weapon on. Could easily cripple it with something less destructive unless collateral damage is a goal.

Actual target lists from the Cold War would disagree with you. There's no scenario where someone would attack it with anything other than a nuclear weapon.

Yep. Strategic target. Heavy industry and military production. They might as well paint a bullseye on the roof.
