The Kingdom of Pelinai is a recently emerged nuclear power and one of the most recent states to successfully construct and deploy a currently functional nuclear arsenal. It is known to possess a wide variety of tactical- and strategic-yield nuclear warheads in large quantities, as well as a nuclear triad delivery system complex capable of ensuring second strike capability. Pelinai has never used nuclear weapons of any type in a military conflict, but does not adhere to a no first use policy and explicitly reserves the right to utilize nuclear armaments and other weapons of mass destruction in cases of conventional military aggression against its territory or the first enemy usage of WMDs against its own forces.
