2. Two types of nuclear weapons

Tactical nuclear weapons (TNWs) are small-yield, short-range nuclear devices designed for battlefield use, rather than destroying cities. They possess yields typically ranging from less than 1 to 100 kilotons and are designed to affect specific battles.


Strategic nuclear weapons (SNWs) are long-range, high-yield nuclear warheads designed for deterrence and destroying a nation's military, economic, or command structure, often targeting cities far from the battlefield.
