Anyone with half a brain and any common sense will realize just how bogus a test this was.  It was "10 months" in the planning, when in an actual DEFCON 1 situation we'd have more like 10 minutes max to get those birds off the pad.  And then before launching it, they transported it to Vandenburg where it was "reassembled", adding yet another layer of unreality to the exercise.  

Nuclear Kabuki, plain and simple.
