Reentry vehicle. Everybody knows what it is, right . Lets look at it. Thats the bus. Thats on top of the rocket. Thats on top of the missile. Stage one, stage two, stage three. And now whats left is that. And each one of those groovy looking machines there is a one Megaton Nuclear warhead. There are one, two, three, four, five, six, seven warheads on the top of that particular missile. Thats an american missile. A mirv now allows you to put anywhere from three to as many as 12 warheads on the tip of a single missile. In the nose cone, and to drive that bus over target, and either send them out in a spread of independently targeted detonations or to fly over areas and drop one or two and continue to fly and drop one or two. Making any attempts to shoot down the missiles much less effective and making any attempt to wipe out our ability for second strike pretty ineffective. Imagine one, one u. S. Attack submarine surfacing with 18 missiles, each one tipped with seven 300 kiloton warheads
