Current Nuclear Weapons Development

House appropriators cut LRSO funding, raise possibility of W80-4 production delay
House lawmakers are proposing a $170 million cut to the Air Force's fiscal year 2021 funding request for the Long Range Standoff Weapon and are recommending a study into the government's backup plans if the new cruise missile's warhead faces a production delay
 
The impetus for all this is whether Russia and China are obeying the ban (its already a given that N Korea/Iran et al don't bother with it). Then the question becomes does self banning simply ratify the cheating. In cases like this, I would favor releasing the technical data (seismic data, imagery, etc) that is driving the concern due to the seriousness of the issue.
 
Okay. Let's imagine for a second (which itself is laughable) that Russia/China are fuzing nukes someone far away. And let's give Iran remark slip down since it's not less laughable and even more speculative. What exactly starting of US live tests will achieve. "We'll show those bastards!"? That's it?
