Best Answer

The arms race did not have an exact starting date. It grew out of the fear and mistrust between the Russians and the rest of the Allies at the close of World War II.

There are other examples of arms races throughout history, but the one that followed WW II was arguably the most significant owing to the fact that nuclear weapons were in the mix.

However the first real official signs of the start of arms race were in response to the first Morrocan crisis of 1905 when Germany began to assert itself more fully in the affairs of other European countries.
