In test reactors.
Is beryllium used in navy ships?
Beryllium is a neutron-reflective metallic substance that has been used in the making of nuclear weapons. As a veteran of the US Navy, I cannot confirm nor deny the presence of nuclear weapons on this, or any other naval ship or station... Since I was not in the "nuke" department (many navy vessels have nuclear propulsion) I'm not sure if it is used in the construction of reactors. Usually, any attempt by a group or an individual to acquire beryllium will result in attracting the attention of the local intelligence agency... For more detailed info on the properties of beryllium, please see link below:
