"The United States has more Nuclear Weapons than any other country. This was accomplished, including a complete update and renovation of existing weapons, during my First Term in office. Because of the tremendous destructive power, I HATED to do it, but had no choice! Russia is second, and China is a distant third, but will be even within 5 years. Because of other countries testing programs, I have instructed the Department of War to start testing our Nuclear Weapons on an equal basis."
"I think the tests we're talking about right now are system tests, these are not nuclear explosions, Wright said. These are what we call noncritical explosions. So you're testing all the other parts of a nuclear weapon to make sure they deliver the appropriate geometry and set up the nuclear explosion. Doocy asked, So this is not something where people who live in the Nevada desert should expect to see a mushroom cloud at some point? No. No worries about that."
President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social that the United States has more nuclear weapons than any other country and that the arsenal was updated and renovated during his first term. He said he instructed the Department of War to start testing U.S. nuclear weapons on an equal basis with other countries' testing programs. Energy Secretary Chris Wright told Fox News that the planned tests will be system tests and noncritical explosions rather than nuclear detonations. Wright said tests will assess nonnuclear components, geometry, and weapon setup to ensure proper function. He assured residents of Nevada there will be no mushroom clouds. Wright emphasized maintaining confidence in the arsenal over time.
