If they had it and delivered it that way what would be the range of destruction?

There are too many unknown variables to answer that question.

Probably a ten mile radius for the worst of it.

6-10 mile radius - if exploded in air above flat ground.

Exploded like a truck bomb or in between even low hills, much smaller radius. Nagasaki’s hills significantly reduced her causalities from those in the flatter Hiroshima.

But the damage radius of modest nuclear bombs (NOT H-bombs!) is really pretty small. But remember, we were told the jv team is beat.

Destruction and radius depends on the yield of the particular devise, and on how well it was maintained prior to use - you just do not pick one up and put it into the closet until you want to use it.

Figure if it is a fission devise that all dead within 1 mile at the minimum.

Here you go make your own local nuke explosion:
