Yes, a nuclear missile has the potential to cause massive destruction and loss of life, significantly impacting a country's infrastructure, economy, and society. The immediate effects of a nuclear explosion include a powerful blast, intense heat, and radiation, which can devastate cities and contaminate large areas. However, the extent of destruction also depends on the missile's yield, the target location, and the country's preparedness for such an event. Ultimately, while a single missile could severely damage a nation, completely "destroying" a country would require multiple strikes and would also lead to catastrophic global consequences.
