oddly enough, all you have to do is spend a lot of time researching, and putting the info you do find together. Tom Clancy actually intentionally fudged some details in his book Sum of All fears.The thing about nukes is that they require a fair bit of technical and industrial capacity to prepare and maintain
It is not the info it is the preparation of enough uranium of the right kind that is the big hurdle.oddly enough, all you have to do is spend a lot of time researching, and putting the info you do find together. Tom Clancy actually intentionally fudged some details in his book Sum of All fears.

Yet another reason why it's not good for everyone and their sibling to have them. Even if you never fire them in anger, Very Bad Things can happen if you do not know what you are doing when making them or maintaining them. Not as bad as a detonation, but radiation exposure does not sound fun.The thing about nukes is that they require a fair bit of technical and industrial capacity to prepare and maintain
Hey!, that's familiar. We've got a sometime-spammer on here who posts whole threads about that.
