Ha esetleg valaki megkérdezné, hogy akkor miért is vannak ABM-ek, arra itt a válasz:
The ABM Treaty was signed at Moscow May 26, 1972, and ratified by the US Senate August 3, 1972. It entered into force October 3, 1972. The US and the USSR signed a Protocol to the treaty which entered into force in 1976 which reduced the number of ABM deployment areas from two to one, deployed either around each parties national capital area or, alternatively, at a single ICBM deployment area. The USSR deployed an ABM system around Moscow, but the US elected not to deploy an ABM system and in 1976 deactivated its site at Grand Forks, North Dakota, around a Minuteman ICBM launch area. The Treaty has subsequently been extensively modified by amendment, and various common understandings and protocols. Five-year review meetings are held in Geneva.
Tehát összesen EGY meghatározott területû város(részt), illetve ICBM bázist védhettél , ha akartál.
(Az USA 2001-ben bejelentette visszavonulását az ABM korlátozó szerzõdéstõl. Azóta gyakorlatilag szabad a vásár.)
Az oroszok atomfejes rendszerrel védik a kormányzati központot (Moszkva), amerikaiakról momentán nem tudni semmit.
