MEANWHILE NIGERIA HAS THE SITUATION AT HAND.

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps has
conducted drills to deal with nuclear disaster that
may arise in the country.

The NSCDC said Saturday training of officers of
the Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear
Unit, a specialised unit of the corps, had since
begun.
“The specialised unit, established to tackle
emergency situations related to chemical
poisoning and nuclear explosions, has also
carried out a simulation exercise as part of its
operational strategy,” the corps said in a
statement.
The statement, signed by spokesperson
Emmanuel Okeh, said simulation exercise was
carried out in collaboration with the International
Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the Nigeria
Nuclear and Regulatory Agency.
He said that the theme of simulation,
“Transportation accident involving a radioactive
source’’, was meant to prepare officials, especially
as Nigeria gears towards the use of nuclear plants
to generate electricity.
“The Commandant-General of the Corps, Dr Ade
Abolurin, has also stressed the importance of the
unit, and called for awareness on the destructive
tendencies of nuclear energy if not well
managed,” he said.
“We are also doing a lot to sensitise the public on
the different dimensions of crime, which now
involves the use of chemicals, bombs and other
dangerous substances,” the statement added
He quoted, Pablo Jerez of the IAEA, as pledging
the support of the agency to the NSCDC,
especially as regards provision of operational
tools and equipment.
“We are also ready to partner with relevant
stakeholders so as to be able to prevent and
tackle any form of chemical, radiological and
nuclear disaster in the country,” he said.

South Africa ended its nuclear weapons
programme in 1989, and these weapons were
dismantled.
However, the highly-enriched uranium fuel was
extracted, melted down, and cast into ingots.
The report states that roughly 220kg of this fuel
remains, and that South Africa is “keeping a tight
grip on it”.

......................................***********...............................................

from the pictures shown above of the nuclear bomb casing and the usage of Highly enriched uranium (HEU) it is clear that the nuclear device is fission based and uses the GUN TYPE ASSEMBLY method.

in layman terms in a GUN TYPE ASSEMBLY nuclear bomb two separate SUB CRITICAL MASSES OF HEU half spheres are positioned at one end and on other end highly powerful SHAPED CHARGED CHEMICAL EXPLOSIVES are positioned on another end.

so two pieces of fissionable material, each less than a critical mass, are brought together very rapidly to form a single super critical one and ultimately a nuclear explosion.

in practical terms this gun-type assembly may be achieved in a tubular device (as seen in the pictures posted of s.african device) in which a high explosive is used to blow one subcritical piece of fissionable material from one end of the tube into another subcritical piece held at the opposite end of the tube.

basic components in a south african nuclear bomb are (as i can infer according to my knowledge) cool cool cool
1.50-55 kg of uranium enriched to between 80 percent and 93 percent in the isotope U-235
2.two suitable TAMPER at either ends to act as a neutron reflector my safe guess would be tungsten carbide tamper-reflectors
3.the above 50-55 kg of HEU divided and shaped into a U-235 "bullet" and a U-235 "hollow cylindrical shape" receptacle, each two thirds critical.
4.the gun tube assembly
5.the shaped charge explosive to propel the U-235 "bullet"
6.SAFF(Safing Arming Fuzing Firing) mechanism
(Safing in a gun-assembled system is especially simple.)

however safety is a big concern with gun-type nuclear weapons. For example, it is inherently dangerous to have a nuclear weapon containing a quantity and shape of fissile material that can form a critical mass through a relatively simple accident.


plus the 220kg of HEU stockpiled since 1989 will have become impure with products of their natural decay, however Uranium 235 loss due to decay is not a problem since half life of Uranium 235 is about 703 million years but as i mentioned there will be impurities which even in infinitesimally small quantities in very undesirable and there the stockpile will have to undergo complicated refining process which again is a big technological challenge .

and nobody in the world uses gun-type nuclear weapons anymore.

so s.africa will have to go to their design boards again if they want to go nuclear

this is a technical analysis and very neutral based on facts , so no hate speech against me i hope
