Emerging tech is often framed as threats to #strategicstability, especially when they:
⚠️ Give advantage to offense
⚠️ Blur offense/defense lines
⚠️ Create first-strike incentives
But not all new tech is destabilizing. Some enhance defense and #deterrence - especially w/the right #armscontrol measures
