    Different British nuclear reactors?

    I keep bumping into this from different angles, its technically very interesting to me so I'll ask the question here and see what happens. In the late 50s Britain was looking for a more commercially oriented nuclear power reactor type to follow on from it's operationally successful but not very...

    Should Australia get The Bomb?

    In the title and best kept as theory. But at least worth exploring this. Certainly we have a AH history option which above all shows Australia doesn't lack the theoretical capacity to achieve this. But in terms of operations, it would seem best for them to either build silos or road train...

    Australian Nuclear Weapons

    Anyone interested in Australian attitudes to getting nuclear weapons should start with this thread that explains how difficult it is and the US role. https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/uk-thermonuclear-warheads.10419/post-98670 The UK experience with the US would be similar for Australia.

    Doomsday weapons and weapons to end all wars

    (Shamelessly stolen from the website atomic rockets) One notional 1959 concept for a large military Orion was the “doomsday weapon" idea. Instead of one Orion carrying a large number or weapons, able to rain down devastation on many separate targets, the idea was to equip one Orion with one...

    US speculation on a rudimentary Indian nuclear bomber force in 1972

    In 1972 the US speculated that if India had gone nuclear at that time, India could "use aircraft in its current inventory such as Canberras or reconfigured Boeing 707's or 747's, as delivery vehicles, but these would be a rudimentary affair, essentially for one-way missions."...
