Albert Einstein once said: "I do not know what weapons will be carried out in the World War III, but in the fourth would be used rocks!". And looking at the current situation in the world, you begin to believe in it more and more. Here are some facts about the country's nuclear arsenal, which prove that a nuclear war of mankind is not exactly necessary.

In Russia, there is the largest number of nuclear warheads in the world
Now, according to estimates by the international expert groups, which were made on the basis of reports in the within the exchange of the SOA-III data, Russia has 508 deployed strategic delivery vehicles. There is a total of 1,796 nuclear weapons. The nearest competitor - the United States – has got 1367 warheads on 681 vehicles. I should make a clarification that according to the same SOA-III, each deployed bomber counts as one nuclear warhead. But how many nuclear bombs and missiles at the same time it carries on itself - it is not considered.
In fact, there are much more nuclear units
The current number of active, deployed nuclear warheads regulated by SOA-III, under which they each country should have less than 1500. Both the US and Russia are close to this number. However, apart from nuclear units standing on duty, there is also a back-up, non-deployed warheads, including those which are in long-term storage. They need to be destroyed according to the contract, but no one is in a hurry to do this. According to various estimates, there are around 6800"canned" warheads in Russia, while the United States have about 7600 pieces.
Compared with the arms of the USSR it is still just a little
