More tactical nuclear weapons, nuclear(-armed) bombers

[Pratapon51]

While this is probably all planned, I decided this was worth making a post on.

We ought to be able to go full Cold War ham with our tactical nukes.

'Dumb' nuclear bombs and fusion missiles from our heavy bombers, maybe firing only in, say, the 5th round of combat to give enemy air forces a chance to intercept their deadly cargo...

SAMs armed with nuclear warheads - for when that pesky heavy bomber and its fighter escort simply won't go down!

Flak guns with nuclear shells - for when your missile tech is lacking, but your courage is not...

Nuclear recoilless rifles and coilguns - for when you need your infantrymen to pack a mountain pass surprise!

Nuclear land mines - for when that pesky armored convoy is rolling down the road to your capital...

Fusion-engine heavy aircraft and thopters : when plasmajets don't quite cut it. Energy shields can neatly sidestep the whole 'radiation shielding' problem, right?

Nuclear Thermal Rocket engine : when chemical rockets simply aren't efficient enough on your airless alien moon. (And when you want to waste barren soil with a little more rads when you're inevitably shot down.)

And in the future : nuclear ship batteries, missiles, and torpedoes. [:D]
