Wow, I had no idea we got rid of the Peacekeeper or the Air Launched nuke cruise missile.

The cruise missile here is the AGM-129 advanced cruise missile (production) was halted at 460 missiles in lieu of the originally planned 1,460.

The USAF still has about 1,628 AGM-86B nuclear armed cruise missiles. Some missiles were converted to conventional warheads and used against Iraq in the 1990s.
