re: #229 Targetpractice
Just one of the many examples of the Cold War philosophy that if you can turn it into a nuke, you were obligated to do so. Nuclear shells, nuclear torpedoes, nuclear depth charges, nuclear bazookas. If they could have figured out a way to shrink them down far enough, they would have issued soldiers rifles that fired micronukes.
I once read calculations that you could fit enough Americium to implode into a barely rifle sized round (say 20mm)…
