The major features of the New Look included ( 1 ) greater reliance on nuclear weapons, using the advantage the United States had over the Soviet Union in such weapons ; ( 2 ) elevation of strategic air power, the major means to deliver nuclear weapons, to a more important position ( not an expansion in the number of Air Force wings but rather development and production of better equipment ); ( 3 ) cuts in conventional ground forces, based both on reliance on strategic and tactical nuclear weapons and the expectation that U. S. allies would provide ground troops for their own defense ; ( 4 ) an expanded program of continental defense, which, along with strategic air power, would serve as a principal ingredient of the New Look's deterrence program ; and ( 5 ) modernization and enlargement of reserve forces, enhancing the military manpower base while reducing active duty forces.
