    There’s a public museum in Southern Arizona with this type of missile.

    It was part of an arms-reduction treaty with the USSR. Both sides had to leave missiles out for satellites to confirm that they had been deactivated and could preserve a facility as a museum.

      That would be where I took this. Great museum. They reeealllly try to hammer home the merits of Mutually Assured Destruction though. It makes sense though, most of the staff there are retired air force who served under SAC
