FAS Roundup: April 27, 2015 April 27, 2015

Russia Nuclear Forces, 2015 Currently, Russia is modernizing its strategic and nonstrategic warheads; it currently has 4,500 nuclear warheads and 1,780 are deployed on missiles and bomber bases. Additionally, there are 700 strategic warheads and 2,000 nonstrategic warheads in storage, and an estimated 3,200 retired but largely intact warheads awaiting dismantlement. In the latest Nuclear Notebook, Hans Kristensen and Robert Norris examine Russia's nuclear arsenal and strategy. Despite Russian nuclear threats, they are not building up their arsenal, but appear to be leveling off the force within the next decade. However, there are many uncertainties about the future development of Russian nuclear forces. Available information indicates that Russia is continuing to reduce strategic nuclear launchers well below the limit set by the New START Treaty, and over the next decade all Soviet-era ICBMs will be retired. Depending on the extent of modernization plans over the next decade and how many missiles Russia can actually produce and deploy, the overall strategic force appears to be leveling off just below 500 launchers.
