Having the right uranium is not at all the same as having a complete nuclear weapons system. There’s a very big layer of complexity in the mechanism for the correct reaction let alone the delivery platforms which are very ruined.

If the Iranians use their uranium for a gun-type weapon, the complexity is vastly reduced over an implosion device. Matter of fact, the Hiroshima bomb was a gun-type. It was so simple, that type wasn’t even tested prior to Hiroshima. Now, the implosion bomb is a much more efficient in it’s use of nuclear material but it is highly complex. The Nagasaki bomb was an implosion bomb and that type was the one tested at Alamagordo prior to it’s use.
