LGM-30 Minuteman Peaking at 1,000 missiles in the 1970s, the current U.S. force consists of 440 Minuteman-III missiles[4] in missile silos around Malmstrom AFB, Montana; Minot AFB, North Dakota; and F.E. Warren AFB, Wyoming. By February 2018 this will be reduced to 400 armed missiles, with 50 unarmed missiles in reserve, and four non-deployed test launchers to comply with the New START treaty.[5] The Air Force plans to keep the missile in service until at least 2030.[6][7] It is one component of the U.S. nuclear triadâ€”the other two parts of the triad being the Trident submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM), and nuclear weapons carried by long-range strategic bombers.
North Korea–United States relations North Korea–United States relations (Chosŏn'gŭl: 북미관계; Hancha: 北美關係; RR: Bugmi gwangye) are hostile and developed primarily during the Korean War. In recent years relations have been largely defined by North Korea's six tests of nuclear weapons, its development of long-range missiles capable of striking targets thousands of miles away, and its ongoing threats to strike the United States[1] and South Korea with nuclear weapons and conventional forces. During his presidency, George W. Bush referred to North Korea as part of "the axis of evil" because of the threat of its nuclear capabilities.[2][3]
