1. Can you nuke nukes? mid flight nuking of bombers/fighters is possible, i was curious (however inpractical it may be) if you can nuke a nuke/cluster of nukes?

2. Does anyone have a list of the unit nuclear arming times? (the countdown timer for the nukes to launch) for bomber/sub/silo etc...

[hi there (name sux)]

1) Nope! I've seen nukes land on nukes and nothing happen.
2) Silo/sub = 120 seconds (2 minutes), bomber = 240 seconds (4 minutes)

There's nothing in the code for that. Plus it would unbalance the game to such a degree that it would become unplayable. Also: Observer bias.

I think that covers all the bases...

Seriously though, I've never seen that happen. I am curious... Perhaps I'll try it later.

impossible, it cant happen. Otherwise, when you go all active with your silos, half of your nukes wouldnt make it all. (It can get really cluttered sometimes if you are hitting europe or mexico.)

like was previously stated, it is just not coded into the scripts of the nukes.
