Can nuclear weapons be manufactured from you 233?
Yes, uranium-233 produced in a reactor from thorium, has almost identical fissile properties to plutonium-239.
How do you get the nuke on Skies of War?
To get the nuke you must have the full version, and complete the sixth or seventh mission, so go ahead and try it out! I have also found a way to get money, open cheat engine, times your money by 8, put that in cheat engine, choose size as double, scan and then make all the options to your desire (It only works if you have over 1000 money.) I hope that this worked!
Is nuke boosting in modern warfare 2 illegal?
no it is not illegal. it simply pisses people off. i suggest using a silenced weapon, one man army, cold blooded, ninja. you obviously also need tactical insertions
What country used nuclear weapons offensively?
The United States used the atomic bomb offensively during WWII. That is pretty close to nuclear weapons.
What war were nuclear weapons used in and why?
Nuclear weapons have only been used in anger in the Second World War (WW2) - they were used against the Japan to bring the war to an end.
Why are no weapons allowed in the DMZ?
Because a 'DMZ' is a de-militarized zone and weapons are military equipment. The idea is to create a tract of land between to feuding parties that seperates them, to give confidence to both parties there has to be agreement that this tract of land will remain free of all weapons.
Is it legal to own hydrogen bomb?
Only for some countries: United States, Russia, China, United Kingdom, France, India, Pakistan, Israel.
What metals are used for weapons?
Steel, aluminum, pot metal, zinc, and others, depending on the weapon and quality of manufacture.
How do you activate nuclear weapons?
Depends on the bomb design and the country. In the US all nuclear weapons now have a PAL (Permissive Action Link) installed. The PAL is a cryptographically controlled device connected to all arming, safing, and destruct systems. The president has a device called the "football" with him at all times, usually carried by an aide. If the president decides a nuclear attack is necessary he uses the "football" to select the plan and it transmits the PAL codes and targeting information. Unless the PAL code is entered by the operators correctly the device will not arm. If they get the code wrong 3 times the PAL refuses all further entries and will not arm. If they persist after 3 bad codes the PAL may choose to destroy the device by detonating the chemical explosives with the nuclear component disarmed.
What is the most powerful nuke?
If you are talking about the most powerful ever than it is the Tsar Bomba.It was a soviet bomb whose explosive force had been halved to 50 megatons or 50 million tons of tnt. It was originakky to have a force of 100 megatons but the explosion was decided to be too large and the plane wouldn't get out in time.
Today the biggest one probably has a force of less than 15 megatons.
How do you make a nuclear weapon out of a wonder bra?
Oh wow, this is soooo easy, why don't you ask something difficult, like "why is my big brother so stoopid" or something. Anyway, here goes:
You first get a wonder bra that has a bit of padding to hide the nuclear stuff. If you have really big...errr...well if you are generously...k nvmind, just get a big bra.
Then you buy some Uranium (I didn't have to cap that but I thot it would stand out better that way), but it has to be U235 because U238 is much cheaper but it won't explode no matter how hard you try.
So now you have U235 and all you have to do is to stuff it in your bra (between the padding and the outer part - this is to hide it from airport people - until you reach critical mass. This is the amount where a fissionable substance will begin to fission and will be essentially uncontrolable.
The critical mass for U235 is approximately 600kg or about 1.5 tons, but don't worry, you won't have to get a mastectomy to accomodate all this rock, because once you reach it, you will no longer have any breasts to worry about. Nor will any of your closest friends.
BTW, it doesn't have to be a WonderBra, any bra will do, or even a plastic grocery bag.
When was the last time a nuclear weapon was used?

How much money do need for one gram of plutonium?
The cost of plutonium can vary greatly depending on factors such as purity and availability. However, a rough estimate would be in the range of tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars per gram.
In which city was the first nuclear pile went into operation in December 1942?
Chicago in a University squash court.
Why was the nuclear weapon created?
Because it was the right time for it:
- All the natural phenomena needed to make it had been discovered.
- All the materials needed to make it had been discovered and characterized.
- A war was in progress.
- A significant fear existed that the enemy was already working on it and might get there first.
What makes a tactical Nuke tactial?
Nothing. You destroy the whole map. If you are really curious why the Infinity Ward game makers put tactical in front of almost anything, ask them.

The United States, United Kingdom, France, Russia, China, Israel, India, Pakistan and North Korea.
