Cracks in America's Nuclear Deterrent
Original: Cracks in America’s Nuclear Deterrent
The American Enterprise Institute has published an analysis arguing that America's nuclear deterrent is showing cracks. The piece contends that the US nuclear arsenal, its delivery systems, and the infrastructure behind them face serious strains at a time of renewed great-power competition. The warning adds to a broader debate in Washington over modernisation costs, ageing weapons systems, and whether US deterrence remains credible against Russia and China.
Why now: Renewed concern over the ageing US nuclear arsenal and great-power rivalry is driving debate about whether American deterrence is still credible.
