The closest you'll get is with the other rival mod, Alfa Tau. It has fully functional SLBMs that will reach their targets and destroy all targets their warheads would cover. However, due to limitations, they don't go suborbital, and only top the cloudcover. They also don't separate, nor satisfy the player with a mushroom cloud, since that's not modeled. All surface targets simply explode within the detonation radius.
Ideally, a merge of the two routines and models would be more satisfying in one mod, but even then there's no visual payoff at impact. Just the tactical win.

SLBM's yes......but there are at least two, confirmed by me, other nuclear weapons that do function, and function well. See last post by me, to you, in the RA discussion thread. Enjoy.
