I believe that Russians are the smartest inventors in the field of SAMs and anti-air missiles. There are technical solutions for all problems. Americans weapons also follow laws of Physics.Actually you can. Modern radiation hardened IC and new design technique help defeat a EMP.
One must remember 50,000 volts will be at ground zero but energy drastically reduce as you go away from ground zero. Energy decreases in a way that is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the ground zero in free space.
You can if the plane is on ground.
But modern technology are radiation hardened and modern EMP resistant design technique help a lot against EMP.
Also you tend to forget such movement of strategic weapons are generally caught by intelligence.
You also have not given a thought enemy retaliation.
Americans benefit greatly from concentration of finance, but not invincible.
Missiles which can bring down stealth planes may exist already, but not publicly known. Russians have quietly collected data in the Yugoslav war and used it. While Russians have lost in Yugoslavia, they may have used the experience to learn.
