how do you think the missive Tsar bomb was going to be delivered? It would need a bomber which is a vastly inferior method of delivery compared to ICBMs.

- monocasa 6y agoBoth the US and Russia still use bombers despite having ICBMS and SLBMs. Bombers are an important piece of the nuclear triad.

Speaking of ICBMs, I also think the Soviets were better at this compared to the Americans, their military had a dedicated Army branch for it, unlike the US.
