'Mutual assured destruction' đây là một khái niệm trong thuật đấu trí (game theory), nghĩa là song phương cùng hủy diệt; cùng tận diệt (a doctrine of military strategy and national security policy in which a full-scale use of high-yield weapons of mass destruction by two or more opposing sides would cause the complete annihilation of both the attacker and the defender).
