Russia has not conducted a nuclear explosive test since 1990 and continues to signal adherence to the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty moratorium absent reciprocal U.S. action. Recent developments include October 2025 tests of the Burevestnik cruise missile and Poseidon underwater vehicle, plus September 2026 strategic forces exercises involving Yars and submarine-launched ICBMs that simulated nuclear authorization procedures. A reported Poseidon torpedo test attempt in the Arctic failed due to technical issues, with the testing window narrowing ahead of seasonal ice. Broader context encompasses the expired New START treaty, ongoing Ukraine conflict dynamics that could prompt escalation, and infrastructure preparations at Novaya Zemlya. These factors keep implied probabilities low, as any shift would likely require confirmed U.S. testing or major battlefield changes to alter trader assessments.
