data for : the tremendous power of nuclear weapons

According to the Russian military news network reported on November 2, the British research agency “Trident Committee” in its name “trend the other nuclear powers outside the UK,” reports a new study that the world has entered a new era of nuclear arms race, the next decade the world has the appropriate level of technological development of countries, this cost will be hundreds of billions of dollars. United States and Russia as the largest competitor, China, India, Korea, France, Israel and Pakistan are also important players.

six British report concluded

British “Trident Committee” by the British American Security Information Council is an independent organization founded research institutes, dedicated to the assessment of the UK nuclear potential and its national policy, the main purpose is to find the answers to three key questions, namely whether Britain should continue to be a nuclear power? Active “Trident” missile warhead is the best means of delivery? London should be taken to expedite the process of nuclear disarmament in the world?

through research, “Trident Committee” The latest report released by the six basic conclusions drawn, the main as follows:

First, although the number of nuclear warheads around the world since the Since the mid-1980s has been reduced, but this trend is clearly in a certain period stagnation, both the number of nuclear weapons here, and quality has increased. And not only political stability of countries, as well as Northwest Asia, South Asia, the Near East political instability in the country. The unstable political situation between the nuclear powers often conflicting, can easily lead to local nuclear war;

second, long-term improvements and new active nuclear weapons nuclear weapons development program actually trigger a new arms race. Nuclear club all countries and Israel in the next decade will cost hundreds of billions of dollars to develop strategic and tactical nuclear weapons, which the United States and Russia will do our best to consolidate his trinity nuclear forces, China, India and Israel will be by increasing the range ballistic missile and building strategic submarine force way to build their own nuclear shield;

Third, all countries have strategic weapons that nuclear weapons are necessary to ensure national security, independent of the tool;

Fourth, with the appropriate technology, countries are developing nuclear program is linked. For example, Russia’s nuclear Trinity improved to ensure that the global response to U.S. missile defense systems and combat systems quickly. China’s development of nuclear weapons, both for the same reason, but also with India significantly enhanced the verification of power; India is ready nuclear weapons for possible territorial disputes with Pakistan and China confrontation. France is also the development of nuclear weapons in response to the world’s strategic reserve of an increasing trend;

fifth, non-strategic nuclear weapons to increase the strength of the fighting strength of the army to make up a weak attempt. In this regard, any reduction or the Non-Proliferation Treaty are not mentioned in tactical nuclear weapons, such weapons can not be fully appreciated;

Sixth, despite the end of 2010 Russia and the U.S. signed a new strategic offensive arms reduction Treaty is the world’s major achievements in the area of ??oversight of nuclear weapons, but it is actually a large number of omissions can not ensure that the world truly substantial reduction of nuclear warheads. For example, the United States and Russia all over the world reported about 95% of the total number of nuclear warheads. Number of nuclear warheads around the world estimated at 20530-21240 gold, according to the British “Trident Committee” statistics, a total of 20,100 US-Russian nuclear warheads. Sweden Stockholm International Peace Research Institute estimated the total number of 19,497 nuclear warheads in Russia and the U.S..

nuclear superpower

already begun a new round of nuclear arms race in the United States and Russia over the next decade will spend at least 770 billion U.S. develop a nuclear arsenal. United States will spend about 700 billion, of which 10 billion will be used to maintain and improve the active nuclear delivery vehicles, 920 million for maintenance and improvement of existing nuclear warheads and their production companies. U.S. also intends to extend the “militia IIII” intercontinental ballistic missile in service period, development of new ballistic missiles, the construction of 12 SSBN (X) new strategic nuclear submarine, the first ship to be commissioned in 2029. Plans to make the B-52H strategic bombers in service shall be extended until 2035, development of new long-range bombers, from 2025 to start using a new nuclear warhead cruise missile with an alternative active products.

Clearly, the British “Trident Committee” of the latest report did not disclose any new content. Because the United States as early as the end of May 2011 had been announced to extend the period of nuclear warheads and their means of delivery service plans. U.S. National Nuclear Security Administration announced an improved state at the nuclear potential, to take measures to comply with the NPT’s strategic plan. Decided to upgrade active nuclear bomb, to achieve the unity of the W78 nuclear warhead, dramatically extend the service period of W76 nuclear bombs, to improve B61 nuclear bomb. B61 nuclear bomb improvement program which is not so much to upgrade, as it is reinstated. The average service period will be extended for a nuclear bomb 30 years. In addition, the U.S. plans for “Ford” class aircraft carrier and the future SSBN (X) development of new strategic nuclear submarine reactors.

2020 Russia will spend at least $ 70 billion developing their own nuclear forces trinity, mainly for the deployment of RS-24 “Ya Ersi” new self-propelled missile, manufactured in 2018, can carry 10 points lead the new intercontinental ballistic missile nuclear warheads, strategic nuclear submarine for the 667BDRM type dress “Sailing” ballistic missiles improved products, build eight 955 “Borey” class next-generation strategic nuclear submarine, with its own R- 30 “Bulava” missile. Russia is also designing the 5th generation strategic nuclear submarine, the Russian military will be equipped with 2025 new long-range strategic bombers, ballistic missiles from 2013 to double output. In addition, over the next decade the Russian short-range nuclear missiles will equip 10 brigades, the British report did not specify what the missile, probably refers to the 2011-2020 plan provides for the Russian state arms procurement, “Iskander-M” tactical missile system.

nuclear weapons program in Russia, the UK report also did not disclose any new content, all measures have to upgrade nuclear potential at each time by the Russian government leaders publicly announced. For example, in February 2011 when he was Russia’s first deputy defense minister, the current Director of the Russian Federal Space Popovkin announced the development to break the future of new ballistic missile defense system, new nuclear weapons manufacturing and fitted out by the total provision of up to 23 trillion rubles of the Russian state arms under the plan. And nuclear weapons development costs will increase every year, according to the end of the State Duma approved the 2011-2013 budget, the Russian nuclear weapons development costs will increase in three years about 40 billion rubles. If the funding of the project in 2010 to 18.8 billion rubles, then in 2011 this indicator will increase to 26.9 billion rubles in 2012 will increase to 27.5 billion rubles in 2013 to 30.3 billion rubles. This can also prove a new nuclear arms race has begun. Russia’s nuclear weapons development cost increases can be interpreted as an upgrade strategy has obvious old arsenal and its carrier, the use of as many missiles has been extended, so in the future Russia will allocate more funds to maintain and update the Trinity nuclear forces.

Russia’s strategic nuclear weapons at present mainly by the R-36M2, UR-100NUTTKH, RT-2PM “Poplar”, RT-2PM2 “Topol-M” (pit and self-propelled), RS-24 “sub Wales “, R-29RM, R-29RMU2″ boat “ballistic missile, 667BDRM” Delta IV “class and 941-type” Shark “class submarines, and map-95MS, Tu-160 strategic bombers composed of strategic nuclear weapons by the United States “Minuteman III”, UGM-133A “Trident” IID5 ballistic missiles, “Ohio” class nuclear submarines and B-1B, B-2, B-52 bombers composition.

other nuclear countries

participate in the new round of nuclear arms race in other countries, the British “Trident Committee” clear that China, India, France, Israel, Pakistan and North Korea. Which Israel is not a formal member of the nuclear club, because the country has never recognized (but not deny) possess nuclear weapons. Allegedly, Israel as early as the 1990s, India had supplied cruise missiles can carry nuclear warheads, but also the joint development of strategic weapons with South Africa. Currently, Israel is creating a range of 4000-6500 km, “Jericho-3″ missiles, but also in the satellite launch vehicle, “Sha Weite” intercontinental ballistic missile on the basis of domestic manufacture, but also for the manufacture of submarine can carry nuclear warheads cruise missiles. If some kind of active fighters and then have the ability to carry nuclear weapons, then Israel’s strategic nuclear forces on the Trinity will be deemed to have fully formed.

French Navy have been supplied to the domestic four “Triumph” class of new strategic nuclear submarines equipped with M51 ballistic missile range of 6000-8000 km, the use of improved nuclear warheads. Air France update the strategic weapons carrier work is actually carried out in recent years, including “gust 3″ instead of “Mirage 2000N”, “gust MK3″ instead of “Charles de Gaulle” aircraft carrier “super flag” carrier-based aircraft, and All aircraft are equipped with the strategic use of new improved warhead missiles.

China continue to develop “Dongfeng” series of ballistic missiles. Now equipped with “Dongfeng -21″ and the extended-range “Dongfeng-31A” missile, said to the latter is mainly used for targeting the United States. China is also developing a new type of land-based mobile strategic missile system, the use of active guided nuclear warheads. Also plans to build five “Gem” class submarines, each ship firing up to 12 ballistic missiles.

India is still in the development of different range “Agni” series of ballistic missiles, once the “Fire 4″ successful development, India will eventually have intercontinental ballistic missiles. India’s Defense Ministry also plans to build at least 5 to carry “ocean” submarine-launched strategic missile submarines. In addition, the Indian Navy is about to get the maximum range of 350 km, cruise missiles can carry nuclear warheads.

Pakistan in the manufacture of a range of up to 2,000 km, “Shaheen-2″ missiles, is still a “Hatf 7″ (land) and “Thor” (space-based) missile test. Allegedly, Pakistan was also being developed can be used in extended-range ballistic missiles or tactical missiles and other types of lighter and smaller nuclear warheads. In any case, the main objective of Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal is obviously India.

North Korea in 2010 announced a range of 2500-4000 km of domestic manufacturing of ballistic missiles “Musudan.” Had already experimented with a maximum range of 10,000 kilometers, “Taepodong-2″ missiles. British “Trident Committee” that was not immediately clear whether the North Korean missile manufacture enough of these compact lightweight nuclear warheads.

specific number of nuclear weapons from various countries, the U.S. deployed strategic nuclear warheads are 1950, 2850 reserve warheads. Non-strategic nuclear warheads deployed 200. Wait for the destruction of nuclear warheads 3500. A total of 8500; Russian deployed strategic nuclear warheads are 2600, reserve 3700. About 2000 non-strategic nuclear warheads, reserves of about 3300. A total of about 11,600; China has deployed strategic nuclear warheads for the 185, reserves 55. A total of 240; France has deployed strategic nuclear warheads to 300, total 300; British deployed strategic nuclear warheads 120-160 pieces, 65 reserves, the total number of 225; Israel’s strategic nuclear warheads of about 100-200; India 60 to 80 pieces; Pakistan about 100-110 pieces; North Korea about 5-6 pieces of non-strategic nuclear warheads reserves.

the whole, the British “Trident Committee” depicts the overall trend is accurate. The current nuclear club member states, it has been engaged in a similar game unique nuclear arms race. Early June 2011, Sweden Stockholm International Peace Research Institute has announced the general thesis that the world although the reduction of nuclear warheads, but this decline can not say too much. In other words, in most cases, the nuclear confrontation continued, and nuclear weapons in circulation is becoming worse.

oversight of Russia and the U.S. there are a lot of offensive strategic arms reduction treaty Russia and the U.S. have been using each of the parties. The validity of the treaty requires Russia and the U.S. 10 years their number of nuclear warheads should be reduced to 1550, the number of deployed strategic carriers reduced to 700. Within the framework of this treaty, Russia has considerable room for maneuver. Latest data show that Russia is equipped with a 1556 nuclear and 516 carriers, so Moscow can actually make your own carrier to increase the number of nearly 200, can also be upgrading nuclear warheads, and will not cause an increase in the number of nuclear bombs. In addition, the treaty is valid, the tactical nuclear weapons, including the “Iskander-M”, including tactical missile systems, will be Russia and the U.S. anti-missile system in Europe dialogue in one of the tools. As the U.S. missile defense system in Europe in response to Russia’s borders in Europe, where close to that city of Kaliningrad, the deployment of such missiles.

United States also have more room, and can take a more indirect way. In the current nine countries with nuclear weapons in the United States, Britain and France is a NATO member, and the British nuclear arsenal since 1962 had been included in U.S. nuclear planning system. This means that, although on the surface, Russia and the U.S. to reduce strategic offensive arms treaty and the United Kingdom does not seem to have any relationship, in fact, you can count the number of Britain’s nuclear bomb to the U.S. account, and vice versa. Especially considering the future British “Trident IID5″ fast attack missile system in the United States to achieve, and the United States to achieve the integration of active missile. In this way, the United States can avoid the use of the British treaty obligations to achieve their purpose. United States is now the size of its nuclear program is indeed huge, and its strategic focus is not on nuclear weapons themselves, but rather other, especially non-nuclear strategic weapons and missile defense systems, such as ballistic missiles with conventional warheads or high-precision long-range cruise missiles, can potentially opponents of the Trinity nuclear forces pose a serious threat, effectively reducing the efficiency of its nuclear shield. This is Russia resolutely oppose the U.S. missile defense system in Europe, one of the main.

Similarly, the U.S. nuclear program to force the development of China and the DPRK to develop its own nuclear weapons. Strength in response to China and India should strengthen its nuclear shield, thereby stimulating Pakistan. France will follow the general trend of the US-led NATO, Israel is ready at any cost to resolve local conflicts in the Middle East. In short, this is a whole chain of cause and effect cycle, a ring set a ring, pull the whole body, especially among the majority of nuclear conflict situations. (Compiled: Shu-shan)
