Not on MAD. Mutually Assured Destruction. The goal is annihilation. They cannot prevent, submarines, supersonic bombers, dead man's switches, and mobile launchers. Sure there is some cover and assumed prevention. Guidance and increasing capability. Until it's outpaced by hypersonics. Instead it's density, and infrastructure. Or ideally such a zero, there is nothing left to be in command of. A restart resetting the planet. Making it a notion of strict deterrent. Except it is becoming out the window when ding ding ding they're faster popping up everywhere and becoming adopted. Is this deterrence, or essentially MAD?
The grid is the first thing launched at, communications and satellites. Then it's the command structure, capitals, and large population centers, disabling supply lines, and obviously large military installations, and airports, and ports. But in that spread it's sooner covering density and infrastructure. Where multiple warheads are fired from the same launch vehicles. Example there are single launched nukes which can host about 25 warheads, what is that radius, 500-1000 miles? What is the radius of let's suggest it hosting 5. They break off blasting an area. It's blanket damage. Give a flying fuck. The dust has hit your presumed green zone regardless. No, there is no, first thing. But there is speculation.
In MAD which is the current deterrence doctrine. It effectively is still a zero. Despite modern tactical debates of scenarios like proxies and specifically guided at direct installations. Effectively it is debating if victory is achievable. First strike, context, and definitions. Or if their use cascades into total annihilation.
