Israel initially chose to respond with extreme force. An F-35 loaded with a nuclear bomb was sent east over Jordan.The mission: cause a high-altitude detonation over Iran that would provoke a surge in the high-capacity power lines, crippling Iran's electric grid, as well as disabling all electronic devices. An EMP attack. However... As the Israeli F-35 was leaving Jordanian airspace it was shot down by the Russian Air Force. Hence the publicised version of the Israeli counter response was such a travesty. In the end, all sides decided not to publicise the real news - to de-escalate what could well turn into WWIII.
Nuke must be armed and the correct firing sequence is required for correct detonation. If you blow up a nuke you just scatter the fuel. Often, to get the correct detonation the fuel is brought together in two or more parts and then an exploding casing is used to crush the fuel into a small space, the casing is arranged so there are segments that have different reaction times to a signal, so the signal must be a sequence in the correct order and timing that only the genuine firing mechanism can deliver - something "like" that.

So, how did they know?

An F-35 can hold a nuke? And it can be shot down with said nuke without it detonating?
Okay

Nukes need a specific detonation so I am told.
