And, with that, I am going to start a specific project: "Project TK-1." What would y'all say would be the benefits and drawbacks of a cobalt bomb, as well as its capabilities? Obviously, the theory behind it would be that of a dirty bomb meant to irradiate the enemy's lands over a long period of time, making them essentially useless for a certain amount of time and increasing the rates of cancer in survivors. But, how would this effect be maximized? What do y'all think? Do not be afraid to share your opinion. And, I trust everyone to be polite in their discussion

what shall be the use of such a Thing? with 'normal' nukes you could seize the land after roundabout 30years, but with this Thing it would be lost for 100yrs or more. so, why?

Hmm I think that proposition was a bit way off and beneficial at the same time.

Haha Observer

Well, I just imagine there are times that the land, itself, doesn't exactly matter to the assaulting nation. They simply want to see every man, woman, and child living under the flag that owns the land to burn and die a slow, painful death of radiation poisoning, meanwhile forcing all remaining survivors to go on a mass exodus. Basically, save it for that one nation you really, really hate for ambiguous (or possibly well-developed) reasons

Why not use it as a doomsday device? This bomb is the logical conclusion of mad, as if it is automated the enemy will be unable to strike without them being devastated by the radioactive material that the bombs contained. These bombs would basically be massive stationary 2-3 hundred megaton salted bombs that would automatically detonate on warning and would be fail deadly. The fallout from these bombs would make the world uninhabitable for over fifty years. However these things have an awful tendency to be planned for announcement in two weeks when the enemy attacks.

Perhaps your opinion about the benefit and disadvantage of cobalt bombs (the current discussion) might work and help.

That sounds like a weapon I might only use on my worse enemies, personally, or as deterrent ( as if planet-vaporizing fusion missiles weren't enough!) against rivals.

[Atomic Utopia]

Out of curiosity, what is your favorite nuclear device of all time? I am torn between these two devices.

Davy Crockett
I love the portability and small size of the device in the test, however it fails to produce a blast as beautiful as the second test.

Atomic Annie
I also love how portable, and the blast is absolutely beautiful in the respect that the mushroom cloud is well formed, and stays a nice red color for about three seconds (the Davy Crockett did not do that). However it is not man portable, or as elegantly small.

I would prefer the good ol´Atomic Annie. Sure it isnt as nicely portable as that tiny Crockett machine, but it serves well when you want to blow a larger bunch of enemies to pieces. Not to forget, such a bigass cannon in combination with nuclear ammunition makes for a nice deterrent.

What do you guys think of these?

This so called Atomic Demolition Munitions, aka 'nuclear landmines', were meant to destroy Dams, Factories and other facilities; or to stop/kill enemy Forces, without the intensity of a 'fully grown' nuke. What are your thoughts on such 'defensive nukes'?

I love those, they are not only perfect for landmines, but larger ones designed with high fusion yields are great for mining and canal digging. Small tactical nuclear bombs are also a great addition to any force as they cost much less than fielding an equivalent amount of conventional explosives. (plus they are more portable)

hehe nice to meet another friend of these nasty little bastards

Honestly the W-54 is my favorite of all of the tactical nukes. Partly because it was used in my favorite nuclear weapon, the Davy Crockett.

[Opplandia]

ah okay, thats an explain then. the W-54 was nice yea, but it could have done better with more detonation-force.

[Atomic Utopia]

Sort of, while the detonation itself was small (only 20 tons of TNT equivalent), the actual area where you would die in was much larger, about 500 meters, due to the radiation. It was also the lightest nuclear bomb in mass, allowing for infantry deployment.

It also was intentional that the W-54 was like that, it provided the troops the ability to survive it detonating at the max range of the Davy Crockett.

[Atomic Utopia]

Nation Name: New Pyrrhius
Nuclear Preference: Tunguska Cannon, a weapon that launches nuclear weapons with nuclear blasts.
Nuclear Stockpile: 117 million and counting. FT nation, go figure.
Number of Nations Nuked: 27 sovereign entities have been atomized.
Number of Worlds Nuked: Three entire planets sterilized with nuclear weapons and/or a neutron slug, 11 that got a few continents blown to smithereens.

the Tunguska cannon is a weapon that uses a principle that is rarely seen in weapon propulsion, and that is nuclear propulsion. For the most part, atomic rockets are too much of an investment to be wasting on "torch missiles" capable of hitting a target from across a solar system. Still, many wanted the easy access to high velocity propulsion that did not rely on the massive energy bill of ship mounted gauss guns or the need to tamper in the anomalous physics associated with gravimetric propulsion. New Pyrrhius however was more unable to resist than most, and built the Tunguska cannon.

The device uses a diamondoid chamber held together with buckminsterfullerene components. The weapon is encased in a aluminum and concrete casing which locks onto a series of shock absorbers. The weapon itself also has these shock absorbers attached to a pusher plate that is the iconic piece of the orion drive. A shaped nuclear charge is inserted into the casing and detonated, while an electromagnetic barrel stabilizes the munition and funnels debris and plasma away from bits of the ship. The casing, having protected the rest of the ship from leftover radioactive bits, is ejected. The system is much more efficient than a weaponized torchship, although the need for large amounts of diamondoid and carbon nanotubes makes it prohibitive to nations lacking the needed nanotech.

You do not need technobable for a awesome nuke propelled spaceship / missile. Why you can probably make something like Project Orion on mt-Pmt (also look at sig for Pmt orion)
