American people are completely broken, the Chinese DF-41 has already been phased out, and the US Minuteman III is still going to be delayed until 2050.

American people are completely broken, the DF-41 that is comparable to the US Sentinel intercontinental missile has already been phased out, and it wasn't even eligible to show its face during the 93 parade.

Meanwhile, the US Minuteman III is still going to be delayed until 2050. An intercontinental missile that is 80 years old, without any operation, may explode in the silo. In fact, currently, the US military's test launches of the Minuteman III are not even sure whether they will succeed. In the past five years, the US has had multiple failures when testing the Minuteman III.

In fact, as early as the beginning of the 21st century, the US had already considered the serious aging problem of the Minuteman III, so it proposed the Sentinel intercontinental missile program. In order to counter the US nuclear deterrence, China also rushed to develop the DF-41.

The DF-41 is said to be the strongest mobile intercontinental missile in the world, with a range exceeding 14,000 kilometers, capable of being fired at any time, and 10 separate warheads that can strike 10 key targets. However, it has only been publicly unveiled for six years, and has already been phased out, and now the latest mobile intercontinental missile in China is the DF-61.

Currently, the specific performance of the DF-61 remains a mystery, but we can only know that it is very strong, extremely strong, and super strong.

You can imagine, why wouldn't American people be broken? You see, the budget for the US Sentinel intercontinental missile has already soared to 140 billion dollars. Such a high R&D cost, the US simply cannot afford it. Even if successfully mass-produced, the cost per unit is something the US can't afford right now.

It can be said that the US triad nuclear strike capability, especially the land-based nuclear strike capability, has actually become a mere formality.
