AFAIK much of the security comes from the willingness to destroy the weapon in question rather then allow it to be stolen.
Rumor mill is that the trucks carrying the warheads are configured to be capable of destroying their own axles and flooding the trailer with a quick set concrete to make it extremely difficult to access. That's only keep it from moving easily though. Air force or air national guard keeps some fighters on alert nearby with orders to bomb the convoy if it does go south and security forces can't repel the attackers.
Again, all rumor mill though.

- meowster 5y agoThe axle thing is not a rumor, or at least it has been reported as fact in the past, although I can't seem to find the source now. Never heard about the concrete though.
