The US delivered its first B61-13 nuclear bomb nearly a year early. With enhanced yield and precision, it modernizes a key part of the nuclear triad amid rising global tensions.

How do you think this could impact the balance of power among nuclear-armed states ? Might it trigger a nuclear arms race ?

    Does that mean they are enlarging the inventory now? As opposed to dismantling old bombs as they make new ones (modernization while keeping the number constant)? I thought there was a treaty capping the total number but haven’t been keeping track.
