Doomsday Clock Advanced Another 2 minutes?
#6
RE: Doomsday Clock Advanced Another 2 minutes?
Based on publically available information, Russia currently has 4,500 nuclear warheads in storage on deployed,  but retains enough fissile material in storage to build about 30,000 additional warheads.  China has 260 warheads in storage or deployed, but has built up a stockpile of material sufficient for about 1,000 additional warheads.

A Cold War era US study shows a limited strike of 1,000 warheads aimed solely at US strategic military targets would lead to 32 million US civilian casualties. The same sized strike aimed at US population centers will cause 160 million us civilian casualties including 100 million dead.
