Do you think rockets ready to launch on a moments notice can sit in silos for 50 years without maintenance? They go into orbit. Just like those that put satellites in orbit. With similar sized payloads. It takes days of planning to just put up one payload. Yet we can sends thousands of them on a moments notice with the turn of a key? Even as a child in the 70's, this never made sense to me.
We can do this, several thousand times, in a ten minute window, with no crew, or pre-flight buildup.
Provide data on stockpiles and resources required to maintain them.
On a dead internet? Where search engines obscure results? Even less likely then launching a Minuteman III.
It takes hundreds of people, days of coordination and millions of dollars of resources to prep and launch a single rocket. One does not need details to understand that you can not mothball a rocket for 50 years and launch it in under ten minutes by turning a pair of keys.
You can't even park a car for more than a month without worrying about start up issues. This is a rocket, meant for intercontinental space flight, with nuclear ordinance.
The shelf life of a "missile system", and not just the individual missiles is 8 to 22 years. Reminder; this is not a missile. It is a rocket being called a missile for some reason.

Does that sound even remotely believable?

Dud? Or no nuclear core in most of these ordinance?
A show of strength, doesn't have to be real.
Explain why it's not possible.

There are less than ten videos of this thing actually being fired on youtube.
You want proof? How have they been performing maintenance on these things for 50 years without knowing how to perform maintenance on them?

Oh, look. You have no data and no actual knowledge of topic.
What a fucking surprise.
Oh, look you have no data either. You've been searching this whole time?
What a fucking surprise.
What I have stated however are obvious self evident truths.
Oh, I mean; you need to go on an endless fetch quest to prove your worth to me. Or I will dismiss you outright without cause.
