These pictures show dimensions, ergonomics, and the number of cylinders that can hold HEU UF6 sufficient for one nuclear bomb. Read the details and implications for the Iranian HEU challenge in my Substack - https://t.co/U5IjyZVqcK

Rosatom's e-library shares a very timely book from 2018 - Kurchatov Institute for Air and Space Fleet of the Nation. The book briefly covers the concept of nuclear energy use for air and space propulsion, and a variety of technical chapters in historical perspective. 1/X

@russianforces @NicoleGrajewski NSG Trigger List has some “laser technology” items, including those useful for implosion testing

[Dmitry Kovchegin @rusnucsecurity]

@NicoleGrajewski No doubt. I am speaking about documented government authorization to do this specific activity potentially violating NPT. I suspect Russia is willing to maintain plausible deniability in such a situation.

But operational reactor with extended flight time and uncertain route is not the same. 3/3

Thinking about legal implications of nuclear powered air vehicle (e.g. Burevestnik) moving through international air space. 1/3

[Dmitry Kovchegin @rusnucsecurity]

Russia delivered nuclear fuel by air to Slovakia and air lifted HEU from Russian-built research reactor as part of cooperation with the US. So, nuclear materials in the sky is not new thing and some international norms should be available. 2/3
