Events | Nuclear Posture Review: Building Our Strength in 2025

Despite our adversaries' growing nuclear arsenals, the United States has not built a new nuclear weapon since 1989. To strengthen our strategic deterrence, it is essential that we revitalize our arsenal and encourage the development of new nuclear capabilities. Ultimately, now is the time for the U.S. to build the nuclear arsenal for the 21st century.
Join us as a panel of experts offer suggestions and discuss The Heritage Foundation’s special report, “Nuclear Posture Review 2025.” This report details the many changes that must be made by the next administration to ensure our country’s safety and ability to deter great power conflict. Additionally, the report offers to serve as a template for a future administration’s Nuclear Posture Review and to delineate a new approach to nuclear posture, declaratory policy, force structure, and the size and composition of America’s nuclear arsenal over the next half century.
