the longbow was not often used individually. The longbow was a mass attack weapon and it provided the tactical advantage that a nuke does today. That is it nutralized the offensive capability of the opponent and gave control of the battlefield to the side with the longbow. Nukes are designed to be used on battlefields. The fact that they could be airbursted over a city, as the US did to Japan, is just another reason to embrace the nuke as the tatical weapon with the city busting strategic punch that it is.

Again all wars, and nuke wars in particular, should be away games.
