Here's what Trump should do: phase out the entire stockpile of B61 gravity-drop nuclear weapons in favor of reviving an improved version of the AGM-131 SRAM II missile with a variant of the W89 warhead that can adjust the yield between 15 to 200 KT. With a range of around 248 miles, such a missile would make the B-2 and its successor a viable nuclear deterrent platform well into the 21st Century.

Now you are talking! The Russians never retired their version of the SRAM as we did, and don’t forget the tactical version. Stealth or not, gravity bombs are inadequate in today’s air Defence environment.
