You don't need much calculation power to manage a 30-min ballistic trajectory.
The inertial navigation system is the very crazy part, along with the nuclear fusion warhead design itself.

I was under the impression that the Trident II could do terminal phase maneuvering, so not a straight ballistic trajectory, but fair enough.
It controls the fusing, not positioning.
