87. nuke weapons are transported on unmarked trucks.
saw a documentary about it. many of the drivers who drive these very specialized rigs are former special forces and police. the drivers make a little more money than normal, but not much.

the trucks looked normal but were equipped with tracking and security features that weren't standard when the documentary was made (one of the first gps tracking systems was used).

i don't know why they would need 300 trucks. i also know that a lot of truck drivers get lonely on the road and they tend to tell really good stories, true or otherwise.
