I thought we were talking about nuking China, not Iran. We dont need nukes for Iran. We could burn ALL of their cities to the ground with conventional bombs anytime we want.And Iran has 1,250 cities, many of them need more than one warhead, and they are partly covered with ABD, plus there are hard targets, mostly underground. In fact, all what you actually can use, without significantly decreasing your own nuclear deterrence, is two hundred of B61 gravity bombs. And you still need to deliver them to their targets by F-35s.
Furthermore, our nukes have cluster warheads now, specifically designed to spread out the destruction in multiple nearby cities. One nuke will destroy a massive region. We also have MANY delivery systems for our nukes. We can launch them from planes, portable missile launchers, ships at sea, submarines, from silos at home, and even from artillary cannons.
