We do know that the Wraith use countermeasures to jam the ability to transport a nuclear warhead into a hive ship. This is most likely electronic warfare being projected with their communication abilities. Provided we have enough information on Wraith cruisers and hives, it may be possible to punch through their communication systems by damaging their com relays. Once their communication system is damaged enough, it may be possible to get a nuke close enough or even inside a hive ship and destroy it. It would make sense that the codes that were needed to break the Wraith countermeasures were part of communication protocols. Think about it. Isn't it just like old style radar jamming? The Wraith are obviously using their communication systems to block transporter beams. Shut down or damage their com system, and it's bombs away!
If there is more than one enemy cruiser or hive, it would be more difficult, but slowly, their communication protocols can be broken down by simply damaging them. Another question is that how is it possible to cut through the jamming system put in place by the Wraith in a situation with more than one hive? Detonate a nuke in the open. You don't even need to try to beam it close, just launch one from a standard missile tube and target an open area off to the side of the hives. The resulting blast would be enough to throw off their sensors and communications for a moment. In the resulting time, it's bombs away!
With these tactics, the Daedalus can become an extermination vessel.
