In 1972, the United States and the Soviet Union signed the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT I) treaty. This agreement aimed to curb the arms race between the two superpowers by limiting the number of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) and submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs) each country could possess. SALT I marked a significant step towards arms control and laid the groundwork for future negotiations. It also included the Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) Treaty, which restricted the deployment of missile defense systems.
