Peacekeeper ICBM

The American LGM-118 Peacekeeper was a silo-based intercontinental ballistic missile introduced during the late Cold War. It could carry multiple independently targeted reentry vehicles, making it a major strategic weapon rather than battlefield artillery. The system was later retired under changing strategic and arms-control arrangements, while its technology influenced subsequent military and space-launch developments.

Originally known through the MX program, Peacekeeper reflected debates over missile survivability, basing, and the vulnerability of fixed silos. Various mobile and protective arrangements were considered before the deployed force used modified Minuteman silos at F. E. Warren Air Force Base. Operational deployment began in the 1980s. The missile combined solid-fuel stages with a post-boost vehicle for placing multiple warheads on separate trajectories. Retirement concluded in 2005, while surplus stages later supported Minotaur IV launch vehicles.
