According to one of Saddam's own nuke scientists, Iraq had an assembled device of several kilotons capacity by '94 (3 yrs after all such devices were to be verifiably destroyed). All they lacked was its enriched uranium core (which they were feverishly working to acquire). Saddam was not even going to test the device, but planed to drop it unannounced on Israel.
Do any Freepers know what became of this device?

Not sure of this device, but Saddam had commercial airplanes striped of their seats...then filled with WMD and flown to Syria.
This was reported by his former spy master who ran the operations.
Second, the Russians complained that their truck convoy fleeing Baghdad full of "stuff" was attacked during the early days of the war. We can just guess, for now, what the Russians were rushing out of Iraq to Syria.
