That's has nothing to do with my question. I know how aerial blast nukes work. But could they even make it far enough to detonate over the target?
Username checks out.
I'll explain it to you like you are 5 years old:
US doesn't have an protection form space based and high altitude missile attacks, so there would be no need for anyone to try to hit you directly with an nuclear strike when they can just take out your technology and watch niggers burn the rest to the ground.
Why are you continually responding while not answering the question? I'm not asking for scenarios. The question is in plain English. And I've even edited it to make it more clear what I am asking. Space weapons are NOT conventional weapons. Get with it or find another question to not answer elsewhere.
Um, he's right. ICBMs enter low earth orbit during their flight path, about 750 miles in altitude. They release decoy warheads, chaff, or even balloon warheads at that altitude. Read an article on ICBMs it will answer your questions. I'm a little skeptical of the whole "EMP" fairytale. Military systems are generally hardened with key components in faraday cages, and I'm super skeptical an EMP that high in the atmosphere would really knock out 100% of systems in real life.
Incredible. Space weapons.
So this is where "stupid american" stereotype comes from.
