Zombywoof, thank you for mistaking me for a well researched and published author. A very nice compliment. But why precede it with name calling? Tsk, tsk.

You have me confused and curious about something. If no one had bombers, why did the Soviet Union keep so many of their Bears flying? Why did they develop the Blackjack? Why, for that matter, does the US maintain a sizeable fleet of B-52's and a smaller number of B-1 and B-2 bombers? All of them armed with nuclear weapons throughout the late 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's? Why, even today these bombers still have nuclear bombs available to use. Or, are they all hoaxes like... I don't know... the moon landing or the pyramids?

Looks like Wikipedia needs you to amend this page for them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_triad
