All 20 nuclear silo's operational, government to test first nuclear intercontinental missile
As all 20 nuclear silo's are operational the government is preparing the first test of their missiles
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After years of hard work and several delays all 20 planned nuclear missile silo's on the deltarian mainland are now operational. The last nuclear intercontinental balistic missile was loaded in the last empty silo earlier this week and the strategic command tasked with managing, protecting and launching the missiles has been fully setup with its command center located in the capital of Cahtice. President Fišer stated that he "congratulated" the hard working men and women of the armed forces in the long process of developing these weapons and that he is "in close contact" with generals on taking further steps to protect the nuclear arsenal.
Now that the missiles are operational and protected in their silo's by 24/7 surveilance the government is looking for ways to test the new missiles which are supposed to be upgraded versions of already existing missiles on Terra. Some have argued that launching a missile into space would be a good way to test it while others think it would be dangerous as it could cause a indirect EMP to cripple electronics back on Terra. The most popular idea for the government is to remove the nuclear warhead on the missiles and replace it with a dummy in order to test the reach and workings of the missile. While this is the likely way to go ahead insiders within the Fišer administration have expressed their concerns since the president seems to favour a full test with the warhead still attached, making a space test ever more likely.
