re: #130 Teukka
An implosion gadget (Fat Man) would require know-how usually only found with state actor backing. A gun gadget (Little Boy) is (theoretically) in reach of terrorists. And a “fizzle” is usually in the sub-kt to 1-2 kt range in terms of yield. Not that it would make any difference, terrorist shit would be a ground burst, with all that means…
If you steal it you only have to hack it, not build it. And since the warheads are supposedly stored apart from the devices, (unarmed) that’s even easier to pull off at least in theory. Heaven forbid. At least with Pakistani weapons… Yikes. (Edited)
