'''Nuclear target structures''' is part of the [[nuclear war]] / [[nuclear weapon]]s related [[List of military strategies and concepts|military strategies and concepts]] developed during the [[Cold War]] and still in use in the 21st century. They refer to likely major targets of [[nuclear weapon]]s in the event of [[first strike]] or retaliation/defensive strike. This attack procedure is for using nuclear weapons in the event that a hostile [[threats|threat]] that cannot be subjugated by using conventional forces or that a hostile nation has used [[weapons of mass destruction]] against a [[sovereign state]].
Because [[nation]] [[state]] nuclear target structures may have changed since the end of the Cold War, it is difficult to predict with certainty what targets [[Russia]], [[China]], [[North Korea]], or [[Pakistan]] might have selected in the [[United States]]. However, targeting should be similar to what was predicted in the early 1990s.
[[Fallout]] patterns from a [[first strike]] upon our retaliatory [[asset]]s might look devastating.
==Department of Defense De-Classified TR-82 "High Risk Areas" Report==
Much of the target structure location research here is based on numerous published sources<ref>[http://www.nti.org/country-profiles/united-states/nuclear/ ''Nuclear Country Profile''], [[Washington, DC]]: Nuclear Threat Initiative (NTI), Last updated: May, 2014. Accessed January 15, 2015</ref>, but especially the [[U.S.]] [[Department of Defense|DoD]]'s de-classified TR-82 "High Risk Areas" report. This report contains a fairly comprehensive list of [[ICBM]] and [[nuclear]] payload bomber targets that has been generated by military [[intelligence]].
==Primary Targets==

These "[[first strike]]" targets are mostly [[missile]] silos, [[bomber]] bases, [[submarine]] bases, and command and control (C2) centers. The enemy must neutralize these assets immediately to prevent or minimize nuclear retaliation.
==Secondary Targets==

Thank you. -->
Secondary targets refers to major [[military]], [[industry|industrial]], [[government]]al, and [[transportation]] centers. Also included are seaports, [[lock]]s and [[dam]]s. These may be hit at once by the first missiles or struck by the bombers that will follow.
==Tertiary Targets==

Thank you. -->
These are [[population]] and industrial centers that probably wouldn't be hit in the first strikes but would be high on the lists for later destruction to further cripple [[America]]'s ability to fight a prolonged [[war]] and/or recover and function as a nation. [[Threats]] against these targets could also be used following the initial [[attack]]s to force our leadership to capitulate.
