Wired literally has a quote from someone competent who says exactly what I said: "Provided you make the effort to maintain warheads properly, though, they ought to work. “Russia has a robust nuclear capacity. They refurbish their warheads often,” says Amy Woolf, a US specialist in nuclear weapons policy. Schneider, too, is confident that Russia’s nukes are serviceable. It would be unwise to assume otherwise. " I can't read the WSJ or NYT articles without subscription so I cannot comment on those.
