Although built to attack swiftly and with unimaginable power, the true purpose of the Titan II was to never leave their strategically positioned silos, but rather to deter nuclear attacks from other countries around the globe. The creation of the Titan II effectively demonstrated – to friend and foe alike – the true might of the US. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA testament to military engineering, the Titan II represented the United States’ ability to retaliate against nuclear strike, and retaliate on such a level that the offending nation would be virtually destroyed – even if they had launched the first attack.
