Its does not matter
as there are not Firing a Nuke

We can not Fire back

Correct on both counts arista. Which is why in your scenario our nukes are 100% useless as both a deterrent and as a retaliatory strike.
The billions spent on the program would have been better spent on military intelligence (and... Space data Satellites I guess?) that might have stopped the attack from ever being planned.
