Military: Power Outage at Nuke Site Entrusted With 50 Missiles

Officials say a power outage caused a break in communication with 50 nuclear missiles at Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming.

One senior Air Force official tells Fox News that one of the three squadrons responsible for communicating with remote launch control centers did lose communication after some of its underground cables "experienced an anomaly" and communications was disrupted as a result.

The senior official also reiterated that the disruption did not mean a launch could not have occurred at any of the U.S. missile sites.

"The military has redundant systems and could have launched if needed," the official told Fox News.
