The United States modernizes warheads for its ballistic missiles

The US Army has upgraded sensors and electronic ICBM components making a significant upgrade that gives lethal capabilities to its missiles.

Despite the assurances of the US Department of Defense about “routine engineering improvements”, the weapon has in fact acquired new qualities and characteristics according to multiple military sources

British sources write that “the Pentagon is trying to advance the technology with only one component update”, but the modernization is “a major achievement in the global arms race.”

The improvements to the warhead make it possible to more accurately calculate the detonation height of a nuclear weapon in order to provide the maximum destructive effect on the targets.

With the modernization of “hundreds of warheads”, the effectiveness of US submarine ballistic missiles (SLBMs) ​​alone has doubled.
