You have 1 superpower, and 2 upcoming challengers.

US has enough nuclear munitions to outright defeat 1 equal superpower in a first strike scenario.

I wouldn't call half the population of the US dying in 30 minutes, and most of the other half over the next 30 days to be much of a 'victory', and I don't want the DoD to even consider employing anyone who would.
