Yeah back in the 50s and 60s
The W54 warheads off of the Fatman were something else: they also got repurposed as demolition charges.
Err Davy Crockett
Damn you fallout franchise
They were to be used to hammer Russian armor if it crossed the Iron Curtain
The men that were part of those units were on potential suicide missions
Hammer, or vaporize? Even a 1kt blast is a lot more than a HEAT round, that's for sure
They even had nuke mortars in the works but I dont remember if they ever got out of testing
They wanted to off set the Russians numerical superiority in armour
Vaporize the first wave to buy time for your troops to counter attack and even the odds also
I know the smallest we officially had in inventory was an 8" Howitzer shell, probably could have gotten smaller I'm sure
Guys
I hate to alarm you
Yes?
Nuclear missiles have gone missing
More?
There’s unexplored ordinance in North Carolina? I believe
Nah. Just saying
There's around 30 missing US nukes and who knows how many Russian nukes.
I’d guess hundreds
Yep
To the dark web!
I don’t know how we haven’t like, all died yet
Supposedly there is a few still drifting around the States as a Deep state insurance policy
Because detonating a nuke could cause the end of the world, that's probably why
Hmm.. wouldn’t doubt it
Yeah but
If you have that nuke
Yeah, sounds likely
You’d be first to die more than likely
I say we throw them at the sun and see what happens
I mean, theoretically, it wouldn't be hard to make a Little Boy clone from scratch. Nuclear dumps loose waste all the time too.
When they tested the first atomic bomb they thought it could possibly ignite our atmosphere on fire and kill all life on the surface
So they took all essential personnel under ground and set it off anyway
I remember reading about one of the scientists crunching the numbers to be sure
Isn’t there bikini atoll
People still live there
And there’s radioactive equipment in the water
I believe so
Speaking about nukes
