Of course the mechanics are the same, but there is no visible crater on the water.
You are probably asking this question as you are still looking at an intel view from before the nuke blast, and have not gone back to look.

I have been playing COW for quite some time and i love this game. I know for a fact that if you drop a Nuclear Bomber or Nuclear Rocket on Land, it will have a 50km blast radius. But does the 50km blast radius works on sea as well!!

Read here:
.. and what else should be noted:
>> If a nuclear rocket is fired at a land target and the target moves out of the target point, the nuke (like normal rockets) hits the point where the target was when the missile was launched, detonates there and causes damage within the 50km radius ..

>> If a nuclear rocket is fired at a sea target and the target moves out of the target point, then the rocket hits the water -- and sinks with a silent plop, without detonating and causing damage ..

>> A nuclear bomber, on the other hand, will also at sea always detonate, because nuke bombers can only drop their bomb directly at a target (province center or unit/s -- and also never in patrol mode) -- but warships have a relativ high air defense >> and if the target's overall AA is about 28-30 or higher (whether on land or at sea), an attacking A-bomber can be shot down before it can activate and drop its bomb.
So you are telling me if I use my Nuclear Bomber to hit a destroyer 30km away from a massive fleet. The fleet will be affected from blast radius
That's what it sounds like. Good info to keep up on right there.

Now that is interesting. I didn't know that, but it explains a couple of events. Always appreciate your input Restrisiko.
