Neutron bombs are engineered to cause a lethal flux of neutrons.

I don’t think we built them and they do require a standard low yield nuclear weapon to trigger the neutron flux, it would require a fairly high altitude burst to fry terrorists and not destroy the dam. The neighbors might object.

Thank you danger doc.

When they were being devised for use in Europe, I didn’t hear this type of concern expressed.

It was just, how dare you kill humans and leave infrastructure alone as it was?

Carter described them as inhumane, and I’m sure he probably tossed in “War Crimes” level insults too.

Correct, it is not a valid solution. No bomb is the solution on this.
