"The Peacekeeper is the most powerful, most accurate missile ever deployed, according to Lt. Col. David Bliesner, 400th Missile Squadron commander. It is capable of carrying up to 10 independently targeted warheads and was designed to strengthen the ground-based strategic policy of the United States.
The development of the missile system began in 1979. In 1988, the Peacekeeper became fully operational with 50 missiles deployed to Warren. "
