where are the us icbm silos
When the Minuteman III retires, the silos and launch facilities at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana, which oversees 150 nuclear ICBMs scattered across a 13,800 square miles, will have been buried for 70 years.
But this preliminary document is the clearest indication of the Pentagon's thinking about the future of nuclear missiles. In short, the Pentagon plans to replace the Minuteman III ICBM with a new launch rocket, one that would launch from the same silos in Montana and South Dakota where the missiles sit now. However, a new missile does not mean a new warhead.
