What could possibly go wrong?
The Trump Administration is racing to field a new nuclear weapon designed to counter Russia and enhance nuclear deterrence.
The W-76-2 warhead will be delivered to the U.S. Navy for deployment on ballistic missile submarines in late 2019. Proponents claim the new warhead will enable the U.S. to respond to Russian nuclear weapons proportionately, but critics claim the W-76-2 is just another nuclear weapon and similarly dangerous.
