Do the raiders destroyed by a basestar nuke include heavy raiders?

The rulebook table says only 'raiders'; posters relaying the official FAQ agree that heavy raiders are unaffected.

No. A nuke's 7 or 8 result destroys three normal raiders in the basestar's area. Heavy raiders are a separate ship type and are not among them, and a base-game nuke never destroys a heavy raider.
