The game was very specific about nuclear targets that were hit in the US - for instance in PA the only nuclear attacks, by canon, in the state are the ones mentioned specifically in Howling Wildnerness and the Allegheny module - thus while the idea of smaller nuclear warheads being used could have happened there is nothing in any of the canon materials about the US (which cover much of the country) showing that any were ever used
considering most of the Russian nukes were ICBM or cruise missile delivered they probably didnt use much of anything below 300kt - the smaller tactical stuff was most likely used exclusively in Europe and China and Iran
as always a GM can choose to make the war worse if he or she wishes to do so and add as many nuclear weapon detonations as they desire
