Nuclear target structures is part of the nuclear war / nuclear weapons related military strategies and concepts developed during the Cold War and still in use in the 21st century. They refers to likely major targets of nuclear weapons in the event of first strike or retaliation/defensive strike.

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.

Fall out patterns from a first strike upon our retaliatory assets might look devastating.
