When Biden went to visit Ukraine, Russia tried to do an ICBM test in response. You just didn’t hear about because the test failed. That should tell you everything you need to know about Russia’s nuclear arsenal.

US believes Russia had failed intercontinental ballistic missile test around when Biden was in Ukraine

I just looked it up.

So basically you are saying that Putin is all talk.

Everyone thought Russia had a modern first world military before the invasion. Even US intelligence thought they would take Kiev in 3 days. Now we can see that all that oil money that Putin was giving to the Russian military, was likely just lining the pockets of the top brass. All their equipment was in disrepair before it even got into Ukraine. None of it was maintained. I doubt their ICBMs and nukes are in any better shape.
