1993年2月24日，中央情报局局长詹姆斯·伍尔西在参议院作证说，印度和巴基斯坦之间的军备竞赛可能是未来使用大规模杀伤性武器（包括核武器）的最有可能的前景。{close_quotes}目前，这两个国家都依赖于相对粗糙的核弹，似乎没有部署。据美国官员说，由于担心意外核爆炸，双方只会在绝对必要的时候组装核武器。然而，根据伍尔西的说法，这两个国家都可以在短时间内组装核武器。{close_quotes}每一个都有战斗机可以在危机中运送这些炸弹。印度和巴基斯坦继续改进其核武器。除非他们的计划被停止，否则他们可能会成功地从大型、笨重的炸弹转向小型化、易于装备和引信的武器，这些武器能够永久部署在攻击机或弹道导弹上，这是两国正在开发或寻求的。
CIA Director James Woolsey testified before the Senate on February 24, 1993, {open_quotes}The arms race between India and Pakistan poses perhaps the most probable prospect for future use of weapons of mass destruction, including nuclear weapons.{close_quotes} Currently, both countries are dependent on relatively crude nuclear bombs that do not appear to have been deployed. According to US officials, because of fears of accidental nuclear detonation, both sides would only assemble their nuclear weapons when absolutely necessary. Nevertheless, according to Woolsey, both nations {open_quotes}could, on short notice, assemble nuclear weapons.{close_quotes} Each has combat aircraft that could deliver these bombs in a crisis. India and Pakistan continue to improve their nuclear weapons. Unless their programs are stopped, they might succeed in moving from large, cumbersome bombs to miniaturized, easily armed and fuzed weapons able to be permanently deployed on attack aircraft or ballistic missiles, which are being developed or sought by both countries.
