80 R29 of which half of on subs at port call

32 Bulavas on 2 Yasens in Pacific

46 R36, 6 with 20MT warheads, 40 with 10 1MT MIRV. 406 warheads total.

36 UR100

The Russian airforce doesn't have serious nukes, the land force don't have megaton scale weapons either.

R36, and UR100 in silos are the only genuine first strike option, everything else is a retaliation weapon. Only a coordinated first strike gives Russia a chance on victory, it's impossible with military C3 beheaded. The surviving military officers in bunkers in far reaches of the country would know that each of them don't have enough forces under their command to continue the war.

Warheads != delivery vehicles, and hasn't been for a long time (MIRV).

> Only a coordinated first strike gives Russia a chance on victory

The idea that a nuclear war can be won died a while ago too.

This all seems a rather pointless argument. I don't want to live in a country that is hit by 5, 10 or 50 Nuclear Strikes. Period.

Which is the only sensible stance to take. Unfortunately that requires rational actors.
