A newly initiated modernization of US nuclear weapons will empower the next US president. As StratDem continues to report, the next generation of ‘smart’, usable nuclear systems rapidly being developed is delivering Cold War 2.0
Since Strategic Demands inception, we have been focusing on national and global environmental security issues. Nuclear proliferation is among our first-tier concerns and a next generation of nukes will soon make their in-theater presence known with ‘smart’, deployed B61-12 weapons and newly configured F-35 platforms.

This is what ratcheting up looks like. This time ratcheting is three-sided. China’s in the nuclear game and the new nuclear arms race extends from cruise missiles with ‘usable’ nuclear warheads to hypersonic nuclear re-entry vehicles.

The new Nuclear Posture Review signals a new nuclear arms race.
