The authors of the Constitution understood that weapon technology changes over time - they had experienced rapid advances during their own lifetimes. They understood that the Constitution may need to change over time, so they provided a process for doing so - ratification. The Supreme Court is not granted the power of ratification in the Constitution.

If Congress didn't want 2A to include nukes, they should have ratified the Constitution when nukes were created. Same with tanks, full autos, etc. They didn't, so nukes, tanks, and full autos are technically legal for private ownership. If you don't want 2A to include nukes, you should write a "WTF" letter to your Congressmen.
