under submarines, on land: the secret war of nuclear weapons

however, even intercontinental ballistic missiles that have undergone countless tests and training still encounter various challenges when launched. whether it is the american "minuteman-3" solid-fuel intercontinental ballistic missile or the "trident-2" launched by the british "vanguard" nuclear submarine, these weapons have experienced countless test launch failures. this is not an accident, but a nuclear war. real scene.
in recent years, strategic ballistic missile launch failures have become a normal phenomenon. a variety of reasons, ranging from technical issues to political factors, may cause the launch process to go awry. problems with the silo ignition system of the russian rs-28 "sarmat" intercontinental ballistic missile, accidents during the fuel filling process, etc. are all reasons for these failures, reflecting the complexity and danger of nuclear weapons.
the united states, as the leader of nuclear forces, has also experienced numerous test launch failures. they rely on their huge accumulation of military resources and technology to maintain the "minuteman-3" intercontinental ballistic missile. however, this aging weapon is facing serious production suspension and parts shortages. each test launch requires repeated inspection of the components and launch system of the "minuteman-3", which not only consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, but also reflects the challenges of nuclear weapons.
on the road to seeking strategic independence, the united kingdom is facing the dilemma of failed launch of the "trident-2" missile purchased by the united states. although britain's control over nuclear submarines continues to increase, the development and maintenance of nuclear weapons still relies on the help of the united states. this not only reflects the complexity and technical threshold of nuclear weapons technology, but also reflects the practical dilemma of international politics: who holds the key to nuclear weapons? who can actually control these weapons?
from the failure of sarmat to the british launch failure, every launch of nuclear weapons faces huge challenges. these challenges not only come from technical and management difficulties, but also reflect that in the global political arena, nuclear weapons are still a symbol of tension and a political rule of the game.
