Bombers are essential because they can also drop convention ordinance. ICBMs are the public, visible deterrence, but are stationary and are at least partially vulnerable to EMP. SLBMs and submarine launched cruise missiles are the real cream of the deterrence, because only a handful of nations have chance of finding them, and its even slim for them.

If it were up to me I would replace all strategic weapons and ICBMs with silo based solid rockets capable of putting payloads into interplanetary space for planetary defense purposes. Single tactical weapons would be launched by IRBMs, either trailer, sub, or ship based, or via cruise missile.
