Nuclear Deterrent Model

Abstract

In order to overcome evolving threats to the U.S. nuclear deterrent, the NWC must understand the trade space, payoffs, challenges, and increases or decreases in effectiveness related to decisions regarding nuclear warheads and their associated delivery systems and platforms. Nuclear Matters is providing data-driven decision making and mission engineering support using a Tri-Lab effort (Los Alamos National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and Sandia National Laboratories) that uses advanced physics-based and stochastic analytics to provide NWC decision makers with threat-informed choices regarding U.S. nuclear deterrent modernization and sustainment.
