Best Answer

A number of improvements have been made in nuclear weapons. They involve the more precise construction (the shape or geometry of the bomb) and the more efficient method of triggering the device. These changes have allowed us to make nuclear weapons that will fit easily in an overnight bag and have permitted us to package numbers of them in a single missile for delivery on multiple targets. All with a minimized probability of a dud, and a maximized (or even a variable) yield.

The size and weight of the weapons has been reduced, along with improved safety devices, and variable yields. The weapons have been "ruggedized" to permit them to function in a variety of environments.
