In defense of the Air Force, I add that they have spent the last half century or more improving the precision of their weapons (including the nuclear variety) to make them useful for destroying specific industrial or military targets, rather than population centers.

This ain’t the 50’s, c & has come a long way. Target I.d. and ordnance on target is less than 2 minutes. Acquisition is accomplished by a fully integrated set of sensors from human to AWACS to satellites, spotter etc... it is all very robust and thoroughly field tested.
