What are Cold War nuclear weapons?
The history of Cold War nuclear weapons dates back to World War II, when the United States dropped two nuclear bombs into Japan. Although it was the only two nuclear bombs that were used during the active war, their use was created by a nuclear weapon plant that lasted more than half a century. The Cold War nuclear weapons were primarily competing between the United States and the Soviet Union, although other countries developed nuclear weapons during this time.
After World War II, the struggle for the world power and the leadership of the United States and the Soviet Union took the lead. At that time, the United States felt that they had a monopoly for nuclear weapons and access to the only uranium supply, which was necessary for the production of nuclear weapons. The world soon realized that Uranus was not as rare as the Americans thought, and soon the Soviet Union began to develop its own Cold War nuclear weapons. The first nuclear weapon completed the United States that shocked the world for the world. Given that the spoJené states have been setting up on the Soviets during World War II, when countries were allies, caused this development in the United States, which further supported the Cold War and red frightened in the US
The first nuclear weapons on the Cold War of the Soviet Union were almost the same copies of the Bomby called Fat Man, which was an American nuclear bomb dropped to Nagasaki. After this development, both parties intensified the production of nuclear weapons and realized that the future of nuclear weapons was in missiles, not bombs. The missiles had an impact on a long reach, and when the Russians started Sputnik, they exhibited their technological progress, began space races, and the United States acknowledged that Russia was before the match when it came to create nuclear missiles.
both sides that have developed a Cold War also developed "Second Strike" systems, which basically meant that even if one side was attacked and mostin destroyed, this party could still initiate offensive and smooth its enemy. Therefore, the US and the Soviets knew that if they started the attack, it meant devastation for both parties.
Since more countries like France, Great Britain and China began to develop their own reserves of Cold War nuclear weapons, they began to form to slow or stop the spread of nuclear weapons. While many of these contracts were ineffective, the United States lasted confidence in their own weapons and eagerly slowed the pace of proliferation around the world. The Soviet Union has occurred economic problems, leading to the slowdown of nuclear spread at their end. Before Ronald Reagan took over the Office in the United States, the Cold War was approaching the end and conglomeration of contracts and the agreement slowed nuclear development. How the last decades have begun to build their own nuclear weapons in recent decades and have awakened the problem of nuclear war and its economic and humanitarian effects.
