I remember in chapter 108, Magath discussed the Global Military Alliance conducting a Scorched Earth Campaign against Paradis in 6 months. That sounds like something that would involve some kind of bombs, possibly even nuclear bombs.

I also remember the live action films introducing the concept of bombs, although the one used at the end of the 2nd film wasn't necessarily a nuclear bomb if I remember correctly.

I've also read somewhere in one of Isayama's interviews that Attack On Titan got some inspiration from In This Corner Of The World, which is based off of World War 2 era Japan, and we know bombs were a thing then.

Plus, I think the current period of Attack On Titan is based somewhere around Nazi and World War 2 times anyways.

I think your theory could be right. And if so, Eren and Paradis and Marley will all have their hands full. For Marley's sake, hopefully Eren will soften up and abort his genocide march at the last moment.
