In the context of the Cold War as it was it pretty much had to end that way.

Apperantly it had to be filmed in the UK and on a sound stage because Hollywood would not touch the story with a ten-foot pole and the USN refused the producers all filming assistance. I think that was in the intro last time it showed up on Turner Classic Movies. Same sort of thing with Dr. Strangelove except there the USAF shunned it and would not allow it to be screened on any SAC base.
