Lost nuclear bomb possibly found
"The United States lost 11 nuclear bombs in accidents during the Cold War that were never recovered, according to the Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank.
An estimated 50 nuclear warheads, most of them from the former Soviet Union, still lie on the bottom of the world's oceans, according to the environmental group Greenpeace."
These items were lost without their detonators, it appears, but it points to a very chilling concern anyway. If these super powers can lose them without their detonators, they certainly can lose them with the detonators.
