About this Ranking

Nuclear warheads represent the ultimate deterrent in modern warfare. Only a handful of nations possess these weapons, yet their arsenals shape global geopolitics and security alliances. The disparity between the two largest nuclear powers and the rest of the world remains enormous, a legacy of the Cold War arms race.
