It's fun to talk about thermonuclear weapons.Good time for China to produce as much thermonuclear warheads as possible that can destroy both Russia and US.
Realistically, they'll never be used.
It's maddening that the United States government refuses to formally acknowledge a state of Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD) with China.
The US government keeps pretending that it has significantly more strategic thermonuclear warheads than China. It does not.
Strategic thermonuclear warheads in reserve are useless. Without a delivery vehicle (e.g. ICBM or SLBM), the reserve thermonuclear warhead never comes into play during an actual war. An all-out nuke war will not wait one year until new ICBM or SLBM missiles are built.
