Today, if any country decided to send a missile over to our country, we would know via satellite that they had fired (in a matter of mere seconds). By knowing they are sending a nuclear bomb to our country, we would fire one them. This would mean a nuclear fallout; our bombs are at least thirty times stronger than the bombs released at Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. This keeps any country from using nuclear weapons on each other for fear of nuclear fallout.
The only country to ever use nuclear weapons in war is the United States with the two bombs they dropped on Japan. No other country has ever actually used a nuclear weapon.
at this time (2013) russia has the most.
