With their arsenal of around 6000+ warheads its enough if they can bring just every 10th weapon to launch and detonation. Thats also true if only looking at tactical nukes, of which Russia has around 2000.
The US has slightly less nuclear weapons in total, but a higher ammount of them are launch-ready at any time, and they have the - small - lead in the strategic sector, whereas Russia has more tactical nukes than the US.
