    You do know that the UK and France have their own nuclear stockpiles, right?

        They have more than enough to wipe out humanity. What else do they need?

          If it was that simple, the US would have stopped producing missiles and warheads a long time ago

              That’s misleading at best. W76-2 began production a few years ago. B61-12 recently began production with B61-13 on the way. The current US stockpile may be down from its cold war height in bare numbers, but that’s not the point. The US is always improving its nuclear technology and refitting, upgrading, or re-manufacturing its existing stockpile. Clearly “wiping out humanity” is not enough.
