  • US Strategic Nuclear Forces
    Order Code RL33640 U.S. Strategic Nuclear Forces: Background, Developments, and Issues Updated September 5, 2007 Amy F. Woolf Specialist in National Defense Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division U.S. Strategic Nuclear Forces: Background, Developments, and Issues Summary During the Cold War, the U.S. nuclear arsenal contained many types of delivery vehicles for nuclear weapons. The longer range systems, which included long-range missiles based on U.S. territory, long-range missiles based on submarines, and heavy bombers that could threaten Soviet targets from their bases in the United States, are known as strategic nuclear delivery vehicles. At the end of the Cold War, in 1991, the United States deployed more than 10,000 warheads on these delivery vehicles. That number has declined to around 6,000 warheads today, and is slated, under the 2002 Moscow Treaty, to decline to 2,200 warheads by the year 2012. At the present time, the U.S. land-based ballistic missile force (ICBMs) consists of 500 Minuteman III ICBMs, each deployed with between one and three warheads, for a total of 1,200 warheads. The Air Force recently deactivated all 50 of the 10- warhead Peacekeeper ICBMs; it plans to eventually deploy Peacekeeper warheads on some of the Minuteman ICBMs. The 2006 Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) report also indicated that it planned to eliminate 50 of the Minuteman III missiles, leaving a force of 450 missiles that would carry, perhaps, 500-600 warheads. After submitting a study to Congress, the Air Force has begun to deactivate these 50 missiles. The Air Force is also modernizing the Minuteman missiles, replacing and upgrading their rocket motors, guidance systems, and other components.

    FINAL HISTORIC BUILDING INVENTORY AND EVALUATION REPORT GENERAL MITCHELL INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT AIR RESERVE STATION MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN June 2007 FINAL HISTORIC BUILDING INVENTORY AND EVALUATION REPORT GENERAL MITCHELL INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT AIR RESERVE STATION MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN June 2007 This page left intentionally blank. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY S.1 PURPOSE AND NEED This Historic Building Inventory and Evaluation Report was undertaken by the US Air Force, Headquarters, Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence (AFCEE) in conjunction with the disposal and reuse of General Mitchell International Airport (IAP) Air Reserve Station (ARS) in the City of Milwaukee, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin. General Mitchell IAP ARS occupies a 102-acre tract located at the southwest corner of General Mitchell IAP, the principal airport in the City of Milwaukee. The transfer of the property is being undertaken in accordance with the federal Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act (DBCRA) of 1990, commonly known as Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC). In 2005, General Mitchell IAP ARS was selected for closure through the BRAC process, and it is anticipated that the installation will close in 2008 (Mehring, August 8, 2006; Guenther, pers. comm., March 15, 2007). The purpose of this report is to identify potentially significant historic architectural resources in the area of potential effect (APE) in accordance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) (16 USC 470f). Under Section 106 of NHPA, codified as 36 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 800-Protection of Historic Properties, prior to execution of an undertaking, including transfer of property out of federal hands, the federal agency, in this case AFCEE, is required to consider the undertaking’s impact on any district, site, building, structure or object that is listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (National Register).

The Minuteman system was designed to protect the United States from a possible nuclear attack as well as to provide a strategic deterrence, a cornerstone of American defense policy of the era. At the peak of the program, the nation's Minuteman arsenal had a total of some 1,000 operational missiles deployed at a series of northern Air Force Bases, including 200 at Malmstrom.
