It's actually harder to make a mini-nuke. Using less uranium means harder to reach critical mass. On top of that, the explosives used to start the reaction have to be significantly more powerful and a container that holds it all together as well.
@bandana_girl6507
@bandana_girl6507 2 жыл бұрын
You can make smaller-yield devices with less explosive requirement with other elements, though most of those would only be viable in an IRBM fired from a production facility (you don't want your fuel to have decayed significantly before using it). That is assuming you aren't changing fundamental laws of physics, which the ease of fusion they have suggests has occurred
@achtsekundenfurz7876
@achtsekundenfurz7876 Жыл бұрын
One issue of "micro-nukes" is that you can't save a lot of fission fuel. IIRC, Davey Crockett had a yield of ~11 tons (that's right, tons, NOT kilotons) and took about 1/3 as much fuel as a Little Boy, which had a yield of ~16 kilotons. Today, we have means to improve the situation a bit, but physics is a harsh mistress and still limits efficiency of micro-nukes. The tricks in use are: -- the implosion design, which was tested first in Fat Man, where you don't propel two hemispheres against each other, but put a layer of explosives around a hollow sphere. The explosion will implode the sphere (compress it into a smaller but solid sphere, which is easily critical). -- fusion boosting, which means easily fusible isotopes like deuterium and lithium inside the bomb. Fusion produces _many_ neutrons, while fission produces very energetic neutrons but takes many to progress efficiently. The fusion yield of these charges is almost negligible, but the neutrons added are not and help use the fission fuel more efficiently. First-rate nuclear powers don't have any weapons without fusion boosting in their arsenal, and only implosion weapons. -- full-scale nuclear fusion: the so-called hydrogen bomb uses fusible isotopes in quantity, usually lithium, which isn't as efficient as deuterium but solid and more dense. Worse yield per kg, but far better yield per liter. Even these weapons don't get more than about half their yield from fusion; a big chunk still comes from fission. Due to the extremely high number of neutrons involved, the fissile fuel is used VERY efficiently. All strategic weapons of first-rate nuclear powers are therefore hydrogen bombs. They're more complicated but save on expensive fission fuel, or have a multiple of the yield a "regular" fission weapon of the same weight would have.

The balloon thing was a method developed to exfil operatives from situations that an aircraft cannot land, its physics check out and as long as your not facing upwind is a gentle ride, however I remember a documentary where one guy was facing the wind and due to the air pressure couldn’t breathe for the 90ish seconds or so it took to reel him in, nowadays we have helicopters however I wouldn’t be surprised to hear this still goes on in situations where helicopters are not able to access. The Davey Crockett was discontinued due the safety concerns over radiation exposure to the squad who fired it. Sry military buff here. :-)

Yeah, the Japanese have got some wild takes, innovations and contributions to the world and I'm not meaning amine, manga, hentai or strange weeaboo crazy stuff. Technology, music, cinema, vehicles, Metal Gear Solid.. you name it, the Japanese took a stylish shot at it and the West came aboard and copied it eventually! Gonna read up more on Bosozoku having found the name for all those bizarre Matchbox cars I had as a kid with the odd names (that turned out to be Japanese). Ironically, in a number of later cases the Japanese were interpreting things how they saw Western culture and adapting it for themselves which made it even more bizarre when the West copied the Japanese adaptation of Western culture! 😂😂😂 Gotta appreciate the Japanese on a number of levels.

NUMBER 1: The Fallout "Fat Man" is a very large spring mortar. A slightly smaller version was used by the British in WW2 as an anti-tank weapon. It was called the PIAT, the Projector, Infantry, Anti Tank. Being as the Fallout universe splits from ours AFTER WW2, it's likely the PIAT was an important reference to the team working on the Fat Man in the buildup to the Apocalypse.

#2 Mail Order Houses Years ago my grandfather was at a county fair (in BC Canada) and he was able to buy a Lindal log home at the fair for about $5000 - we're talking way back in the 40's, so $5000 was a lot of money back then. When the salesman asked when and where to ship the home - everything was included (transportation of the pieces, building the home etc.) my grandfather said that in about 40 years they could deliver the home to his retirement address. Yes, 40 years from the time he bought the home, and the contract didn't say when the home had to be built. When my grandfather decided to retire, he got his dream log home built for free - as he had already purchased the home 40 years earlier.

a little interesting fact: in the country of brazil, a company name ElectroBras is responsible for manufacturing high level energy and sell it to local companies that refine it into comsumer level energy and re-sell it to households they used a few giant "generator" to transfer energy over-the-air from one powerplant to another in 2014 one of the powerplants started to receive less and less power over a few months, and wouldn't you know it... there was an construction site for an apartment building nearby... and it was being delays for weeks because the works were getting sick shortly after starting on the site (reportedly someone has contracted cancer) they had to shut down the generators for the building to not being condemned as a biohazard, but the powerplan on the receiving end of that generator were working at lower capacity for 2 years until they could relocate the generator

The mail order house out of Sears and Roebuck or whatever was such a good idea. Anyone could afford a house that way especially a brand new house. The pricing even included the nails, glue, and instructions. I wish I could do that with a modern house 🏠

Funny you should mention the Fatman, as not only is it based on the Davy Crockett in terms of it being a one-man nuke launcher, it also takes heavy inspiration from the WWII-era PIAT launcher in terms of appearance, the difference being that the PIAT was a spring-loaded anti-tank launcher, whereas the Fatman uses magnetic acceleration to lob its mini nukes toward the wielder’s intended target.

I live in a Sears house! Built in 1928 or 1929. I live right across the street from a bike path that used to be railroad tracks. The train literally stopped in front of the property, and the lumber was unloaded and the house was built. Actually, this is a group of three similar Sears houses in a row that was from the same family before we bought in 2000. This is an old house, but it has a lot of character.

They still sell mail order cabins. You can order a log cabin in the mail. They send you all the logs, pre cut, pre beveled. All you have to do is put it together. There are definitely blueprints and diagrams that come with it, but anyone who's had a set of Lincoln logs knows that there would be multiple ways to put it all together. Obviously you'd have to figure out your own electrical, and plumbing solutions.... but these are marketed toward people who have general knowledge of such things, or who want to be off the grid. Kind of like your No Man's Sky base on New Zanzabar 35.

In the early- to mid-20th century, you could buy a house out of the Sears catalogue. Everything arrived with numbers stamped on them and would be assembled according to an included guide, just like IKEA furniture. In fact, you can sometimes still find little stamps with mysterious numbers on them on the exterior of mid-century homes, left over from their assembly.

The Davy Crockett was used in mgs3. It was what the boss handed volgin. The reason it was never placed completely in service. It's maximum range, still placed the shooter in the fallout region. I've seen one in person. It was in the apg musuem when I was in ait. The 50s and 60s were insane in regards to nuclear weapons. The Brits toyed around with placing nuclear mines in the fulda gap, the mines needed to be kept warm, so they would've placed chickens with them. Certian odas and navy seal platoons were trained to conduct military free fall jumps with man portable nuclear weapons, emplace them and attempt to unass the area, but they all knew, it was a one way trip.
