A nuclear explorsion used in this way is called an EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) . If exploded over the US, it would set our society back into the 1800’s. Most cars and trucks wouldn’t run, all computers would be toast and you wouldn’t have any electricity. Transportation of food would stop and millions would starve. - very scary
