Missile gap shifts in favor of United States with new ICBM totals
Washington reports 200 active ICBMs at Plattsburgh and a growing force including 126 Atlas 54 Titan and 20 Minutemen with plans for 54 more Titans and 786 more Minutemen. Estimates place Soviet missiles at 75 to 100, while U.S. forces approach a thousand ICBMs and Polaris subs. Advances in reconnaissance cameras and satellites heighten intelligence accuracy as experts debate future Soviet progress and risks of a bantam ballistic missile.
