The United States is planning to station nuclear weapons in the UK for the first time in 15 years, according to reports. The US intends to place nuclear warheads at a new facility at RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk as the threat from Russia increases, The Daily Telegraph reports.
Procurement contracts reportedly confirm that the weapons will be three times the strength of the Hiroshima Bomb.
The US removed nuclear missiles from the UK in 2008 after judging the Cold War threat from Moscow had diminished.
The news comes in the wake of warnings that Nato countries need to ready their citizens for war with Russia.

Three US troops have been killed and 25 injured in a drone attack on a US base Jordan, the US military said.
US Central Command (Centcom) said in a statement the casualties were caused by a drone attack at a base in northeast Jordan, near the Syria border.
US President Joe Biden said that the attack was carried out by "radical Iran-backed militant groups".
This is the first time US soldiers have been killed in the region after Hamas's 7 October attack on Israel.
There have been attacks on US bases in the region but so far there have been no casualties reported by the US army.
"While we are still gathering the facts of this attack, we know it was carried out by radical Iran-backed militant groups operating in Syria and Iraq," Mr Biden said in a statement.
"Have no doubt - we will hold all those responsible to account at a time and in a manner our choosing.
"Jill and I join the families and friends of our fallen - and Americans across the country - in grieving the loss of these warriors in this despicable and wholly unjust attack," the statement added.
