Below is a nice sized quote from just a few tid bits on too much yield weapons of mass extinction. Destruction just don't cut it these days, every
third world nation is working on a basement nuke. The stuff is so common it is even used as deleted rounds. If any thing, this should be a eye
catcher.
nuclear detonation detection and reporting system
(DOD, NATO) A system deployed to provide surveillance coverage of critical friendly target areas, and indicate place, height of burst, yield, and
ground zero of nuclear detonations. Also called NUDETS.
nuclear bonus effects
(DOD, NATO) Desirable damage or casualties produced by the effects from friendly nuclear weapons that cannot be accurately calculated in targeting as
the uncertainties involved preclude depending on them for a militarily significant result.
nuclear collateral damage
(DOD) Undesired damage or casualties produced by the effects from friendly nuclear weapons.
operation exposure guide
(DOD) The maximum amount of nuclear radiation that the commander considers a unit may be permitted to receive while performing a particular mission or
missions. Also called OEG. See also radiation exposure status.

zone I (nuclear)

satellite and missile surveillance
(DOD) The systematic observation of aerospace for the purpose of detecting, tracking, and characterizing objects, events, and phenomena associated
with satellites and inflight missiles, friendly and enemy. See also surveillance.
With the recent rumor on a potention nuke attack, it fits.
