The Boeing B-29 Super Fortress gave the US , and it's allies , a long range strategic bomber with a range of 3,250 miles capable of delivering atomic weapons . The 'Cold War' strategy revolved around this bomber which eventually evolved into the SAC (Strategic Air Command) which was responsible for maintaining an air force capable of delivering nuclear bombs to the point of contact .

The foreign ministries of other countries were forced to adapt their own foreign policies until they too had an equal capacity for retaliation ie Soviet Russia .

The eventual outcome was a MAD policy where each were Mutually Assured Destruction .
