In the United States, during the Cold War, the missile gap was the perceived superiority of the number and power of the USSR's missiles in comparison with those of the U.S. (a lack of military parity). The gap in the ballistic missile arsenals did not exist except in exaggerated estimates, made by the Gaither Committee in 1957 and in United States Air Force (USAF) figures. Even the contradictory CIA figures for the USSR's weaponry, which showed a clear advantage for the US, were far above the actual count. Like the bomber gap of only a few years earlier, it was soon demonstrated that the gap was entirely fictional.

  • ミサイル・ギャップ論争(英語: Missle gap)とは、1950年代後半に東西冷戦下のアメリカ合衆国で行われた軍事論争。単に「ミサイル・ギャップ」などと表記される場合もある。 (ja)
  • La brecha de los misiles (en inglés, missile gap) fue un término usado en los Estados Unidos a principios de la década de 1960 para hacer referencia a la percibida (y errónea) disparidad a favor de la Unión Soviética en el número de ojivas (warheads) nucleares estratégicas -así como en la potencia destructiva de ellas-, tanto respecto de las de mediano (IRBMs) como las de largo (ICBMs) alcance.
