When you look at other countries that are developing the capabilities and the technology to deploy missiles of very significant destructive capability with nuclear, chemical, or biological warheads, then the MAD dogma makes even less sense.

In effect, you cannot stop Iraq from growing nasty bugs in the basement. You can stop them from putting operational warheads on working missiles and launching them at their neighbors.

American Journalist

Like any good spy novel, the Cox Report alleges that Chinese spies penetrated four U.S. weapons research labs and stole important information on seven nuclear warhead designs.

Rick Yune

I can't understand why anyone would want nuclear warheads. If you shoot them off, it's not like you can take over that country-all you do is kill millions of people.

That's what I always liked about science fiction - you can make the world end. Humour is my multiple warhead delivery system.

Real power in the modern world is determined by a nation's economic capabilities, not just the nuclear warheads it stores.

The best reduction, the most final reduction, is to destroy the warheads.

You just activated a nuclear warhead, my friend.

Warhead is commonly used in military and defense language to describe a weapon's destructive part.

Military Context

A warhead refers to the capability to cause an explosion resulting in significant damage or destruction.

Destructive Power

Warhead is often accompanied by specifications like 'nuclear' or 'conventional' to indicate its type.

 What we find is the only way we know how to get rid large numbers of nuclear weapons is by using the plutonium in the warheads as fuel in our nuclear power plants. And so, if you are wanting to get the world rid of nuclear weapons, then we're going to need a lot more nuclear power.

 There are many, many sites where warheads are stored and, in fact, lots of sites where fissionable materials, like highly enriched uranium and plutonium, are absolutely not safe. They're available to be bought, stolen, whatever. They're acquirable, let me put it that way.
