Yes and as I have explained, a modern day nuke has an energy yield far superior to that of the 12 or so ships that attacked Sovereign. Those weren't even dreadnaughts.
Forget about the ground situation. Send in the airforce; we could send a thousand planes with nukes if we wanted to. That would obvioulsy be overkill, but you get the point. Only one missile would need to strike the Reaper to kill it. And as we've seen, ships have been able to hit Reapers will missiles, they just haven't been powerful enough to do any real damage because ME people don't use nukes anymore.

You can't just fit the nukes that could do that level of damage on fighter jets. They have to be fit on special planes designed for that. They would be easy as hell to spot, and shot down without hesitation. That's even assuming the ship stays grounded. It could easily dodge nukes launched from the planes, resulting in us destroying our lands without any damage done. Thats even assuming nukes are approved for use. The first strike would be devestating, probably hitting important assets to stop us from retaliating. The world goverments would be in chaos. When they manage to get their **** together, more likely than not many military assets and leadership elements will be destroyed. The nukes would be too valuable to make a shot that fails. Thats not even including the factor of indoctrination, which may end up making us use our nukes on ourselves. Nukes are a tenuous solution at best.
Of course you can. Why couldn't you have a nuke on a plane? That's how they did it all the way back in the 1945, and I think we've gotten a little more sophisticated in our technologies since then.
All the planes would be easy to spot, but since most planes have armaments anyways, how is the Reaper supposed to know which exact ones to take down? Also, like I said if you really wanted to, you could send in dozens of planes with nukes.
The Reapers can't just float and do quick lateral dodges or something. Either they're in space, or they're landed/flying. They can't just dodge missiles though, they aren't THAT agile.
If the nuke does miss, then it will have only missed by a few hundred feet anyways, which is close enough to still kill a Reaper no problem. I repreat; it doesn't need to be a direct hit.
If there's one Reaper, it can't possible cripple the entire world in a single blow. Even if it lands right on the White House, there's a whole rest of the world out there totally unharmed. No chaos over there.
Remember, Russia has thousands of nukes. Britain and France and China have hundreds. And since whatever city the Reaper is in is screwed already, nuking it wouldn't be that radical of a solution. When they see that traditional weapons are ineffective, you know they'd throw their biggest guns out at the Reaper.
