The United States and Russia have joined the framework of the " New Strategic Weapon Reduction Treaty for Reduction of Nuclear Weapons " to reduce nuclear weapons and supervise each other. The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs released the total number of strategic offensive weapons between the United States and Russia, with 1,456 cases in Russia and 1,357 cases in the United States. In addition, Russia has 767 items in the undeployed categories and 800 items in the United States, which is considered a very authoritative and accurate official data. Compared with very transparent nuclear arsenals like the United States and Russia, the most mysterious thing in the world should be the number of nuclear weapons in our country, which has been going back and forth between 100 and 1,000, and there has been no accurate number for decades.
During the Cold War period, the two superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union, had confrontation, and the number of nuclear weapons s owned by both sides could reach tens of thousands at peak. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia inherited the Soviet legacy. Currently, the United States and Russia have the most nuclear weapons, and it is said that they each have more than 6,000. More than 30 years have passed, nuclear weapons maintenance costs are high, and there are requirements for retirement and renewal. Old warheads can be peacefully transformed and utilized, and power generation increases economic benefits. Now the number of nuclear possessions of the two major countries is just on paper, and the real number has been reduced, but the power of the tiger is still powerful, and no one dares to provoke it. Just scare others.
my country's nuclear weapons started very early. In 1964, atomic bomb , and in 1967, Brother Cheng became a nuclear power before the Treaty of Controlling the Nuclear Weapon. It has been more than 60 years since then. The number of nuclear warheads in my country is the highest state secret, and the specific number cannot be verified. Some say 150 pieces, some say 300 pieces, and some say 200 pieces, which is different. China pursues a limited defense strategy and is a country in today's world that has a "triune" strategic nuclear strike force in the sea, land and air, except for the United States and Russia. "It can be shown that it cannot be done", which will not affect the country's economic development and can also give potential opponents sufficient deterrence.
Last year, an expert called for an increase in the number of nuclear bombs , which caused a great response. Actually, there is no need for us to worry about this. In the past, our country also wanted to increase the number of nuclear bombs, but the situation did not allow it. But now that he is strong, his ideas will naturally become active. Many people are anxious when they see that China has a small number of nuclear bombs, and have various explanations. The fundamental reason is that everyone has misjudged our ability in this regard. I thought I could build as much as I wanted, and I thought I could hit the missile to the United States at any time. The number of nuclear weapons is a secret If it is made public, the strategic value of nuclear weapons will be greatly weakened and will cause politically unpredictable consequences. This thing is not used for use, but is just in a state that can be used but not used for a long time. It is more of a psychological effect.
my country's actual number of nuclear warheads is definitely more than the 100 or 200 that are estimated by foreign countries, and there are more or less, but it is not like the thousands that some people hope. For that year, about 200 nuclear warheads were basically enough. However, now it is different. Our national strength has changed, the scope of national interests has also changed, and the tasks we face have also changed. We need more nuclear warheads to serve as a strong support for our behavior. But some people's ideas still exist in the old era, because they are afraid that China will have a large number of nuclear warheads, and abroad will be unhappy, and they are afraid that foreigners will be unhappy than their national security - they are outdated and it is inevitable that they will be eliminated.
China's number of nuclear weapons is not as high as the United States and Russia, but it is more than enough to be higher than Britain and France. China has a large population and although it is vast, its economy and population are concentrated in coastal provinces. In addition, China promises not to use nuclear weapons first, so it is better to keep the number of nuclear weapons at around 500. If anyone uses nuclear weapons to us, it is the day when other countries die. (Text/Shanfeng)
