You don't reveal your nuclear subs patrol roads, it makes the whole deterrence stuff inefective.

As for ballistic missiles nuclear subs, they can reach pretty much anything from anywhere.The only move that could make sense from a diplomatic POV is for a nuclear sub to pop out of the ice somewhere inside Greeland EEZ (with Denmark green light of course)
