Question

whats beater sea based ICBMs or land based?

Answer 1

Land-based ICBMs are more accurate and precise, because the position of the silo is very precisely known. Therefore their CEP and PEL are much smaller than sea-based missiles. However, their locations are not only known very well to us, but also to the Russians (the only nation that has weapons that can pose a serious threat to our land-based silos).



Submarine-based ICBMs are less precise, but can strike more rapidly because they are closer to their targets. And being in a mobile platform, they are much harder to find and knock out than land-based silos.



Both are important components of our defensive strategy. No potential foe can be absolutely sure that he could knock out our entire deterrent force. And any attempt to do so invites swift, devastating retaliation.

Answer 2

No offense Bob R... but the land based ICBM warheads are not any greater or lesser yield than sea based SLBMs



Sea Based SLBMs are more dangerous because of the difficulting in locating the Subs that fire them. Land Based ICBMs are in fixed and known Silos. and therefore can be targeted for destruction.

Answer 3

Even though they're inter-continental, the mobility of sea based is more of a threat.

Answer 4

if you want better accuracy? then Land based.

if you want mobility and security? then sea based

Answer 5

land based because of the fact they can deliver a huge ballistic of thermal nuclear payload attack any where in the world

Answer 6

it depends on whether you want to be nuked faster (sea based) or get nuked bigger (land based)

Answer 7

Beaters me ???
