re: #176 wheat-dogghazi

And aren’t those things really heavy? I doubt the handful of soldiers sent to retrieve it could have *run* with the thing so easily.

The W54 warhead, developed in the early Sixties, weighed around 51 lbs in the MK-54 version deployed by the Army as a part of the Davy Crockett weapon. The MK-54 was a sub-kiloton device with a yield equivalent to 10-20 tons of TNT.
