Overview of the U.S. nuclear weapons program

“Nuclear weapons and countering nuclear threats will continue to be a central concern for the United States until we achieve President Obama’s vision of a world without nuclear weapons. The President has identified the dual missions of sustaining a safe, secure, and effective nuclear deterrent and countering the threat from nuclear terrorism and nuclear proliferation as among the two most important for U.S. national security. Nuclear Matters serves as the focal point for these missions within the U.S. Department of Defense.”

A comprehensive overview of the U.S. nuclear weapons program and U.S. efforts to counter nuclear terrorism is available in The Nuclear Matters Handbook, an OASD(NCB/NM)-developed resource for the nuclear community and the public.”
