No, the U.S. is not stuck in the 1940s, we have thermonuclear bombs (H-Bombs, not A-Bombs). And we always have many ready to go at a moments notice.

ALOT of countries have nuclear warheads. But if you are specifically talking about A-Bombs i'm not too sure.

Heres a couple of Nuclear armed countries:

-USA

-Russia

-UK

-France

-China

-India

-Iran

-Israel

-Pakistan

-North Korea

-South Africa

If you are interested in how it is launched:

The Nuclear Football (also called the President's Emergency Satchel, The Button, The Black Box or just The Football) is a specially outfitted black briefcase used by the President of the United States of America to authorize the use of nuclear weapons. Adopted to permit the President to make a nuclear-attack order while away from fixed command centers, such as the White House Situation Room, it functions as a mobile node in the strategic defense system of the United States. While exact details about the Football are highly classified, several sources have provided information about the bag, its contents, and its operation.

Michael is ninga: Haha. Goodone :-)

Answer 7

Well, I dont know about atom bombs, but we have nuclear missiles.

Answer 8

A-bombs are now basically obsolete because of the nukes, which America (and several other similarly stupid countries like us in the UK) has plenty of.

Answer 9

Yes we do.  They are located all over the United States and can be launched with a series of buttons being pushed.  

Answer 10

Russia has the most nukes, US is second, others that have nukes include China, Pakistan, N.Korea, Japan, Israel, England, India.

I think i got them all there. If you mean the Atom bomb well i don't think they make those anymore.

Answer 11

The U.S has about 10,000 nukes and is ready to use them at any time and they have enough power the blow the world up 3 times over, and then there is russia with the same or more amount of nukes than the U.S, the U.K India Pakistan, China, France, Israel and possibly soon Iran, any country can use one at anytime, but that will ensure the worlds destruction so they are used for detterents, a more worrying concept is if a terrorist group gets its hands on a nuclear suitcase bomb. The U.S and others now possess hydrogen bombs which are more powerful than an atomic bomb.
