Many of those are due for retirement purely due to age. There isn’t a replacement system for many of them. Furthermore, countermeasures have gotten better; future designs will better take these into account.
Truth on lemmy gets downvoted. It’s really that simple. Most of our Nukes are the same age as our grandparents at this point. Our ICBMs are running on 5.25" floppy disks from the 70s. All this shit is OLD and desperately needs modernization for safety and security.
But if the headline was 'USA to replace ICE nukes with EV nukes" it would be upvoted and celebrated.

Call me a bleeding heart but my preference would be that there are no future designs. The world needs to disarm of nuclear weapons
I’m on board as soon as we verify that Putin has completely disarmed.
Yeah, let’s just let China take over the world and nuke us when we get uppity.
god yes, please President Xi fire Dongfengs at DC ASAP 🙏🙏
