I think we have retired almost all our silos. Cruise missiles and sub missiles are the real deterrent.

We have 450 of the original 1,000 Minuteman missiles still on alert. We did retire the 24 remaining Titan II sites after the Damascus AR accident.

Don't forget, odumbo wants to get rid of the Tomahawks too by 2015 or so (with nothing in the pipeline). That leaves us with SLBMs and a handfull of B-52's, B-1's and B-2's (44 B-52's, 70 B-1's and 16 B-2's). Also with nothing in the pipeline.
