US air force creates new nuclear command centre
Updated
The United States air force is creating a new command centre to control nuclear weapons, after several high profile errors led to the dismissal of two top officials.
In 2007 an air force bomber accidentally flew across the United States loaded with six nuclear weapons.
Earlier this year it was revealed that nuclear missile fuses were inadvertently sent to Taiwan in 2006.
Air Force Secretary Michael Donley says the changes are a critical milestone that will reinvigorate nuclear missions.
