I'm glad y'all all read Wikipedia, but y'all are off on the boomer numbers. There's 14 boomers, 20 missiles due to the new start treaty, and I'm not saying how many nukes because it's classified. But 12 is too high. How do I know? I did 7 years on 2 different boats.

Forgot about the 4 tubes welded shut. Even then, with 20 tubes at 6 warheads per Trident II instead of 12 (for things like dummy warheads, decoys, underloading, etc.), that's still 240 warheads coming down from two SSBNs. That was really my point: Less about exact numbers and more that SSBNs really are on a whole different plane of "Motherfricker, I'll take us both down".
