Hmmm, that is interesting:

And also not mentioned - Israel - who never formally announced they  
were
"nuclear-capable" although we all know that is a crock. :-)

Actually, both appear:
6645 nuclear warheads Are within range of Brussels, Belgium
By country
1264 from USA
4568 from Russia
192 from UK
121 from China
300 from France
200 from Israel

By delivery
2690 from long range ICBMs
240 from short range missiles
944 from bomber aircraft
2771 from nuclear submarines
