Nuclear First Strike Plans and How They Change

Today we are addressing a listener question on how nuclear strike plans have changed over the course of the Cold War for both the United States and her adversaries. This is a fun question to answer because a lot changed during the Cold War and into the present day in both countries as far as military, economic, and demographic concerns go. In this episode I cover who makes these plans and how they do it for both sides and what potential for strikes would look like in the United States as far as the top targets. Enjoy! I always like talking about nuclear war.
