United States
Active
- Minuteman III (LGM-30G): launched from silo
- UGM-133 Trident II submarine-launched ballistic missile
Inactive
- Atlas (SM-65, CGM-16): Former ICBM launched from silo, the rocket was modified and used in 1962-1963 for four manned Mercury-Atlas flights, and was used, along with the Agena or Centaur upper stages, as a medium-lift satellite and interplanetary probe launcher for NASA and the USAF. Original design, with "balloon tanks" and "1.5 staging," has since been retired and replaced with the Atlas V, which has an internal structure similar to the Titan ICBM, but using conventional propellants.
- Titan I (SM-68, HGM-25A): Based in underground launch complexes. Used LOX/RP-1 propellants like Atlas, but stored in conventional tanks.
- Titan II (SM-68B, LGM-25C): Former hypergolic-fueled ICBM launched from silo, the rocket was used in 1965-1966 for ten manned Gemini flights and its two-stage core was modified into the heavy-lifting Titan III and Titan IV rockets. All Titan II, III, and IV models have since been retired.
- Minuteman I (SM-80, LGM-30A/B, HSM-80)
- Minuteman II (LGM-30F)
- LGM-118 Peacekeeper / MX (LGM-118A): silo-based, with rail basing tested; decommissioned in September 2005
- Midgetman: road mobile launcher; has never been operational, cancelled in 1992
China
DF (Dong Feng or East Wind) are land-based ICBMs.
- DF-3 (CSS-3): Road mobile, 4,000-5,000 km
- DF-4 (CSS-3): 1975, silo-based, 5,500-7,000 km
- DF-5, DF-5A, and DF-5B (CSS-4): silo based, (1981) 13,000- (1983) 15,000 km, MIRV - 3 to 8
- DF-31 (CSS-9): 2006, road mobile, 7,250-8,000 km range.
- DF-31A: 2007, road-mobile, 11,270 km, MIRV - 3
- DF-31B: 2015, road-mobile, unknown range and MIRV capability
- DF-41 (CSS-X-10): 2010, road-mobile, 12,000-15,000 km [1] MIRV - up to 10[2]
France
France only deploys submarine-launched ICBMs, with all land based IRBMs decommissioned.
India
- Agni-V: 2014, road and rail mobile ICBM with a range of 5,500-8,000 km[3][4][5] and is expected to enter service in 2015.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12]
- Agni-VI (Under Development): is an ICBM with a range of 8,000-12,000 km[13]
Israel
- Jericho III is a road mobile ICBM which entered service in 2008, a three-stage solid propellant missile with a payload of 1,000 to 1,300 kg with a range of 4,800 to 11,500 km [14] (2,982 to 7,180 miles).[15] In November 2011, Israel successfully test fired an ICBM believed to be an upgraded version of the Jericho III.[16]
Under Development
North Korea
- KN-08
- BM25 Musudan - if modified
- KN-11 - if modified
Intercontinental-range submarine-launched ballistic missiles
- The U.S. Navy currently has 18 Ohio-class submarines deployed, of which 14 are designated SSBNs and armed with 24 Trident II SLBMs each, for a total of 288 Trident II missiles equipped with 1,152 MIRV nuclear warheads.
- The Russian Navy currently has 12 SSBNs deployed, including 4 Delta III class submarines, 7 Delta IV class submarines and 1 Typhoon class submarine.[17] Missiles include R-29R SLBMs and R-29RMU Sineva/R-29RMU2 SLBMs with MIRV warheads for a total of 181 missiles equipped with 639 nuclear warheads. The Borei class SSBNs and Bulava SLBMs are under development.
- The United Kingdom's Royal Navy has four Vanguard class SSBNs, each armed with 16 Trident II SLBMs with MIRV warheads for a total of 64 Trident II missiles and 225 nuclear warheads.
- The French Navy has four Triomphant class SSBNs each armed with 16 M45s SLBMs with TN75 MIRV nuclear warheads. The M45 SLBMs are scheduled to be upgraded to M51.1 and M51.2 (expected to enter service in 2015).
- The People's Republic of China's People's Liberation Army Navy has five Type 094 SSBNs each to be armed with 12-16 JL-2 SLBMs.
Under Development
- India: It was revealed in 2011 that India is developing a submarine launch ballistic missiles based on some variants of the Agni series, the K Missile family which will be a series of submarine-launched solid fueled missiles.K-5 missile, with a maximum range of 8,000 kilometers and a payload of one tonne, is under development by DRDO which may be the SLBM version of AGNI-V (ICBM). A variant of the K-4 missile is also under development, with a range of 5,000 km and is intended to arm the future, larger nuclear submarines of the Indian Navy.[18] India, having completed the development of its first ballistic missile submarine INS Arihant, is reported to be developing at least three more submarines in the Arihant class.[19]
