Minutemen have the “cool” factor but it’s hard to compete with a Titan II for sheer impressive brawn.
Kinda like a B-1 vs. a BUFF.
I was a communications equipment repair technician in the early 70’s stationed at McConnell AFB KS. I maintained the primary alert system that would have delivered the Nuke Em message to the Titan II crews. The missile sites were awesome and a little surreal. SAC was a weird organization. The Titan II was decommissioned years ago but only 450 land based ICBMs seems tiny by comparison to that period in time.
I was the XO to the AF Contingency Support Staff in the basement of the Pentagon when the Titan blew up in Arkansas in 1980. What a mess. Luckily only one individual lost his life and that was too many.
