Having a nuclear missile is a prestigious issue for every country. Nuclear weapons act as a deterrent force. More and more countries are joining the race of having nuclear missiles and doing their nuclear tests. The missile man of India, Late A.P.J Abdul Kalam once said that “Today, India is a nuclear weapons state.” He urged India to build up its military strength and to free itself from the threat of domination by outside forces. Kalam played a crucial role when India tested its nuclear weapons in 1998. Because of Late Abdul Kalam’s intelligence and bravery, India could get a place in the list of major nuclear states in the world and continues to expand its nuclear power. Only 9 countries have nuclear missiles, and India is one of them. Here is the list of countries which own nuclear missiles.
