Generally, the agreement seems to pose no new strategic danger for either side. Its merit is that it seeks to place some kind of cap on nuclear development-even though that cap does not fit very tightly. Observes Edward Luttwak, a Pentagon strategist: "The Air Force and the Navy can keep building whatever they want." So, of course, can the Soviet forces. Indeed, as each side maneuvers for the strongest possible position within the new arms limits, pressures toward a multibillion-dollar race to improve weapons may prove irresistible.
