Sep 16, 2019 at 19:08 comment added John @jdunlop as handheld as a hmg, or mortar, but your correct "infantry delivered" or "man portable"would be better terms.
Sep 16, 2019 at 19:00 comment added jdunlop @John - I'd hesitate before calling the Davy Crockett "handheld". Even the concept of a "briefcase nuke" is literary exaggeration - 50lbs is a lot to lug around in a briefcase. Backpack, maybe.

Sep 15, 2019 at 5:11 comment added John We have invented a ridiculous variety of nuclear delivery systems, including hand held nuke launchers. so stopping missiles won;t stop nukes. note the only nukes ever used in war were both simply dropped from planes.

Sep 14, 2019 at 2:03 comment added Joe White This premise reminds me of P. J. Plauger's short story "Wet Blanket".
Sep 14, 2019 at 0:31 comment added FIRE I am mainly concerned about ICBMs, then secondly cruise missles
Sep 14, 2019 at 0:06 comment added user535733 ...as would covertly-delivered nukes, or hijacked nukes, or false-flag nukes.

Sep 13, 2019 at 22:45 comment added jdunlop Are you solely concerned about ICBMs/SLBMs, or against the use of nukes in general? Cruise missile/stealth bomber-delivered bombs would have basically the same effect.

Sep 13, 2019 at 20:55 comment added F1Krazy Welcome to WorldBuilding.SE! Your mention of railguns implies that you're open to futuristic technologies being used in an answer; is that correct? Could you edit the question to clarify when World War 3 takes place in your story?
