Nope. That’s not remotely based on what I’m saying (or what I think).
To just refute that I’d confirm my support for the B-21 as replacement for existing nuclear armed bombers (plus it’s new cruise missile), the new SSBN in similar numbers to the existing fleet, and the new ICBM in broadly similar numbers to the existing Minutemen numbers. And updates to the B61s.
Not a comprehensive list, my views may vary on other programs.
Again that apparent urge by even relatively reasonable contributors to find an “opponent” to argue with/ gang up on.
As for the other comments I’ll leave it to other contributors and the sites administrators to judge, not looking to derail this discussion.
That's basically what they're planning. I'd add the small nuclear warhead, B83 modernization, and the mobility option to the new ICBM, and we're there. (I suspect where we'd differ the most is the characteristics of the ICBM.)
