Nuklearkorps

The k.p.k. Nuklearkorps (Zusian: ᚦ᛫ᛈ᛫ᚦ ᛀᚢᚦᛚᛂᚨᛡᚦᚬᛡᛈᛊ), usually known simply as the Nuklearkorps, is the branch of the Zusian Vahrmacht responsible for the nation's  and strategic  systems, including its strategic  systems. It is commanded by the Zusian Basilikar and the Defense Marshal, and is administered by the Hofka.

The Nuklearkorps was created on 3 June 1959 as a direct reaction to Arshavat's use of atomic bombs during the Dai Hoa Unification War, to organize the Imperium's nuclear deterrence and defense capabilities. Concurrent with its creation was an outpouring of funding, which eventually led to the creation of the integrated Phantomhaus anti-ballistic defense system in 1971, designed to intercept and destroy strategic nuclear weapons. In addition to the Phantomhaus, the Nuklearkorps took charge of all Zusian nuclear ground-based, , and ballistic missiles with ranges over 1,000 kilometers.

The Nuklearkorps routinely cooperates with complementary strategic forces in other branches of the Vahrmacht. These include the Himmelkorps' Atomic Aviation division and the Marinakorps' ; the three bodies together form the Zusian. The Nuklearkorps also cooperates closely with Amphian Missile Corps, the nuclear missile command of the Amphian Compact, to which it donated a large portion of its stockpile in 1990.

Though the exact tally is highly classified, Zusea is estimated to possess 400 nuclear warheads, more than any other nation besides Arshavat. The Phantomhaus system is also considered one of the most advanced ABM architectures in the world, with hundreds of associated missile sites and a dense network of radar and satellite surveillance.
