Cyberwarfare is complicating thing because it would not replace traditional weapons, but it's in the vital role for supporting the most advanced weapons. If the computer virus would infect the missile fire control or flight control computers, that would make those weapons useless. And the most terrible scene would be that the assembly line of the missiles or smart bombs would be infected with the virus, what would make every weapon unable to accomplish their mission.
If the computer virus would deliver to the computers, what is controlling NORAD, and that destroys the operating system in critical time, would that cause the situation, that USA is at least partially open for airstrikes what are made by using the nuclear weapon. And if many missiles would get bugs in their computers, those missiles cannot be used in their mission.
Advanced computer viruses, what are disturbing communication outposts and satellites are made for increasing the power of the traditional weapons. The cyberweapons can also be used by criminals, who would terminate the databases after, they have made money transfers to their own bank accounts. That's why those criminals must use the logical bomb, and destroy the target accounts from the banks, where the money have been sent. That makes tracking of that money difficult.
Cyberweapons can also shut down the surveillance systems, and that opens the road into the house for some burglars. Those people can steal assault rifles from army warehouse. The computer virus is the cheap weapon, what can be done by using a couple of hundred Euro computers, and because they are immaterial weapons, the criminals can copy masses of them. And the organization, what has lost those weapons would not even notice, that the code has been stolen.
The computer virus weapons can be very devastating if they change the circling speed of the centrifuges, what is enriching the Plutonium. That would cause the nuclear explosion in the laboratory, what is used in the nuclear bomb-making. The NSA has simulated computer virus in "Operation Merlin", where the NSA send the computer virus to Iranian nuclear facilities. Those viruses mission was decalibrated the nuclear facility's computers, that those laboratories were produced too rich Plutonium, what would cause the nuclear fission.
