Making the World Safer:reducing the threat of
weapons of mass destruction
Weapons of mass destruction arethe most serious threat to the United States
Nuclear Weapons. . .difficult to acquire,
devastating in use
BiologicalWeapons
. . .use available technology andare potentially catastrophic
DTRA’s mission…Reduce the present threatPrepare for future threats
ChemicalWeapons
. . .cheap and easy to make
Dozens of attempted nuclear smuggling incidents arereported annually
…there are more than 1,500metric tons of separated
plutonium in the world —enough for more than
200,000 nuclear weapons
nuclear
…one milligram of sarincan kill one person
chemical
Tokyo subway attacks killed twelveand injured more than 5,500
…one billionth of a gram ofanthrax can kill one person
biological
Recent anthrax attacks killed five, exposed hundreds,and resulted in costly cleanup activities
Arms Control:Inspecting threats at the source and stopping themat national borders
Threat Reduction:Dismantling the former Soviet nuclear arsenal in place
Using a full spectrum of tools to reduce the present threatand prepare for future threats
Chemical and Biological Defense:Assuring operations in hostile environments andconsequence management
Technology Development:Developing, testing and fielding offensive anddefensive technologies
Making the World Safer
