Nuclear Hardening

Nuclear Hardening is a defensive engineering strategy involving the structural and material reinforcement of nuclear weapons systems to ensure operational survivability against physical attacks, particularly through electromagnetic pulse, blast, and radiation effects, thereby preserving second-strike capability.
