"Nuclear-armed sea-launched cruise missiles, removed from ships and submarines under the 1991 Presidential Nuclear Initiative, are secured in central areas where they remain available, if necessary for a crisis," the paper says.

Are you telling me we don't have any nukes on ships and subs? 1. I don't believe it. 2. If true, it represents a huge breach in our national security and I can't believe even the Rhino Bush SR would sign something like that.

I believe this is true, however the U.S. still maintains a fleet of Trident SSBN's with missiles that are nuclear tipped.

At any given time (24 x 7 x 365) there are more than enough warheads at sea available for targeting anything N.K. or Iran might wish to loose.
