Treaty first to eliminate state-of-the-art missiles
The INF pact aims to remove all missiles with 315 to 3000 mile ranges from the U S and Soviet arsenals within three years of ratification. It involves inspections at Utah and a California plant and at a Soviet site near Otkinsk with a mix of national technical means and on site checks to verify dismantling.
