My assumption is they work like a Swiss timepiece until I know otherwise. But it seams to me that if you can’t win without nukes, then you can’t win. Even testing one in the hinterlands brings diminishing returns pretty quickly. The US will know if they attempt a test. And if it squibs, they can’t unshit that bed.
“My assumption is they work like a Swiss timepiece until I know otherwise.”
Agree, but the NY Times and other Neocon mouthpieces seem to say otherwise.
As to a test, I’m sure it will work, and it will be done simply because the generation of people running Europe and the White House barely know they exist, much less the blast they provide.
