Estimated Numbers of Tactical Nuclear Weapons as of 2010
U.S.: The U.S. has not made public the number of tactical nuclear weapons that it maintains. The U.S. is believed to deploy approximately 500 tactical nuclear warheads, including about 200 B61 gravity bombs deployed in five NATO states (Belgium, Italy, Turkey, Germany, and the Netherlands). The U.S. also maintains approximately 700-800 additional tactical warheads in storage.
Russia: Estimates of the size of Russia's tactical nuclear arsenal differ. According to one open source estimate, Russia retains approximately 5,390 tactical nuclear warheads, approximately 2,000 of which are deployed, while the rest are in inactive storage or retired. Russia is alleged to deploy some of these forces in areas adjacent to Europe such as Kaliningrad and the Kola Peninsula.
i.e. despite being a formidable ground force, Russia outnumbers NATO with tactical nuclear weapons [the only kind one can use without destroying the entire Planet in a few minutes - only incinerate cities and armies, etc.] 10:1 ready, 5:1 total. Most persons do not know this fact, trust me the US and NATO military does! Russia also has slightly more long-range and super-duper 'Armageddon' nukes than the West. So, there can be no conflict between West and Russia, unless one want to kiss the human race and most of the Planet goodbye. At least it will be quick for all but those in remote places. :hock::
