That was my initial thinking too, although I don't know enough of the science behind it to comment accurately.
What about the effects of the nukes? What lasting atmospheric and electrical effects might there be on remote control of aircraft? I suppose in a world where radiation half life is dramatically shortened for character survivability and game playability, it's not that much of a stretch for a GM to simply say lasting after effects make it impossible to control anything at greater than a few kilometres due to unspecified signal interference.
