The Sashaburg Space Center tested Minuteman rockets today. The first nuclear weapons to be tested by the USSC. These rockets are intended to be a deterrent to attacks on the USSC. The rockets are a fast-response atomic weapon that can be launched seconds after any attack is reported on the USSC, thereby hitting our enemies back with nuclear weapons just minutes after they attack us. While the results of such attacks are obviously catastrophic, this weapon serves as a deterrent to other nuclear powers. We will not maintain a large arsenal, only around 500 warheads (compared to Russia's 10,000) at secret silos located throughout Col. Depending on how successful our future space program is, the Minuteman rockets may be replaced by an orbital Space Defense Initiative laser capable of detonating ICBMs from orbit before they reach their targets and while they are safely in the upper atmosphere.
Congratulations, comrades, we are now a nuclear power!
Good work though! ;D
