Mit dem System können nicht nur Flugabwehrraketen, sondern auch atomar bestückbare Cruise-Missiles wie Tomahawk eingesetzt werden.
Die USA verfügen seit 2013 über keine atomar bestückbaren Tomahawks mehr.
Das ist so nicht korrekt.
Although the U.S. Navy has yet to make a formal announcement that the nuclear Tomahawk land-attack cruise missile (TLAM/N) has been retired, a new updated navy instruction shows that the weapon is gone.
The evidence comes not in the form of an explicit statement, but from what has been deleted from the U.S. Navy’s instruction Department of the Navy Nuclear Weapons Responsibilities and Authorities (SECNAVINST 8120.1A).
While the previous version of the instruction from 2010 included a whole sub-section describing TLAM/N responsibilities, the new version published on February 15, 2013, contains no mentioning of the TLAM/N at all and the previous sub-section has been deleted.

Meines Wissens nach gibt es keine Verifizierung der Vernichtung dieser Waffen durch Abrüstungsinspekteure.
