I imagine.

When the neocon neomilitarists were more open about such things, I seem to recall (some leak of? -- someone's* version of?) a target list including such things as "leadership" targets.

Of course, that was when "victory disease" was burning hotter.

*: Something like a (preliminary, high level) target list is typically not hard to come up with. (Any third-rate, neomilitarist, "think" tank could.) You just have to pick up an appropriate way of looking at the problem -- and then go where this perspective (understanding), the facts-at-hand, a good general understanding of how such things work, reasonable expectations and projections, logic, etc, take you.

For example, in terms of attacking some target, you look at what you want to "take out", what's defending it, and what these things are dependent on.

Then going a little deeper (considering defenses), one looks to disable the opponents "senses" (radar), "voice" (communications) and "brain" (command) -- along with disabling what actual weapons he might have. (And so on.)

And there are critical parts of infrastructure that, when disabled, can have broad or narrow effects, including those that affect both the primary targets and their defenses (in whatever depth).
