All population centers were targets of opportunity. Several were priority targets that required special attention such as:
Only two cities in Japan have been attacked with nuclear bombs at the end of WW2: Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
The goal of carpet bombing during World War 2 was to try to weaken German morale and destroy cities which contained war industries. This technique was very effective on Germany and usually destroyed whole cities or large targets.
During World War II, cities were often "blacked out" during air raids to make it difficult for airplane bombers to identify their targets. Bombing raids were often carried out after dark because it made the bombers more difficult to spot and, therefore, to be shot down.
It is the scenario wherein the U.S. and Russia launch their nuclear weapons, and the multiple strikes in both countries and on other secondary targets around the world destroy many of the world's large urban centers and strategic installations. There will be an extended loss of life as economic systems collapse. The world will revert to a less advanced and interconnected place and will suffer under the after effects of the many blasts and all the environmental damage that they will do. Human life will be pushed to the brink of extinction. Big Bomb - It is more the scenario when the entire world is devastated by a globe shattering nuclear war that turns the world into a desolate waste. A nuclear holocaust is the event where most of human life is wiped from existence by nuclear devastation, it would not just involve the United States and Russia, but more or less all nations with a nuclear arsenal. These include the United States, Russia, China, Britain and France. Big Bomb - A nuclear holocaust usually involves the widespread use of nuclear weapons detonating the major cities of the world. Most likely, the communists would join together in targeting the capitalist nations. New York, Washington, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Chicago would be primary targets for Russia, while Moscow and other major urban centres in Russia would be big targets for the US.
Yes, two nuclear bombs were used in warfare during World War II. The United States dropped atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945. It remains the only time nuclear weapons have been used in warfare to date.
Hiroshima, Japan 8/6/1945 and Nagasaki, Japan 8/9/1945
The only nuclear bombs ever used on targets in a war were by the united states on the Japanese cities of hiroshima and nagasaki.
I think we bombed many cities in Japan during WWII but the two cities we dropped nuclear bombs on were Hiroshima and Nagasaki
During the cold war, the soviet union wanted to destroy the United States.
During World War 2 they were 'nuked' (bombed with a nuclear bomb) by the American and British forces. These cities are the only cities ever to be a victim of a nuclear attack in a war.
Those cities were the only ones attacked by nuclear weapons during WW2 making the time as the beginning of the nuclear age.
Germany attacked several major cities in the Soviet Union during World War II. Among the cities attacked were Moscow, Stalingrad, and Leningrad.
Hiroshima and Nagasaki .
Any place with a large number of people in a small area. Cities, sports arenas, shopping areas, transportation centers, recreation areas.
The to major cities of Kazakhstan are Astana, the capital, and Almaty, the largest city and the former capital (during Soviet times).
ay
Are you thinking of Nuclear Bombs? That would be Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Otherwise.., there were hundreds of cities 'destroyed' during WWII by conventional bombing as well.
