Tactical nuke in Ukraine!?! New angle footage...

Live Leak ^ | 2/8/15

[Enlightened1]

New video showing tactical nuke in Ukraine Donetsk region. You can see the ordinance vaporizing the atmosphere!!!!

[maddog55]

ordinance??? Paperwork won’t do much damage.

[Grzegorz 246]

“What did Russia do this time??”

Most likely just lost 1 ammo depot.

What's more interesting is why Putinoid trash is all over it with “was it a tactical nuke ??” stuff.

Is this just more of known “Do we (!) really want to start nuclear war over Ukraine?” or something new ?

[Krosan]

In my opinion it is simpler than that. Some of the Putinoids posting here are just very close to the guiding source of propaganda so they get the Kremlin instructions with minimum delay.

I don’t even mean that they are ALL malicious participants. Might be just someone who had an empty head now filled with garbage by his Russian mail ordered bride. Another source is conspiracy and goldbug forums, that I believe by now are firmly under control of Kremlin psych-artists. Then of course the Serbs, who received a warm welcome 15 years ago as long as they were able to post “Clinton Huilo”.

The telltale would be a double flash, these typically detected by a specialized photometer known as a bhangmeter. Only an atmospheric nuclear explosion causes this kind of double flash. These instruments were carried by the Vela Hotel series of satellites tasked with detecting atmospheric nuclear tests. It was one of these satellites that detected an “alleged” test off of South Africa. I do not know if such instruments, or there successors, are still in use.

FOAB is what the Russians use. It could be that.

The incident at Kamisayah during the Gulf War (1991) was another example of unintended consequences. Although the explosion was planned the results were not. Saddam did not color code his munitions. Military stacked them all together and blew them in place. Did resulting blast (HUGE!) cause “Gulf War Syndrome?” No way to know...

[Morpheus2009]

It looks to me like either that or a fuel air bomb, perhaps. Fuel Air Bombs, pack a real punch, or so I’ve heard.

[Morpheus2009]

That’s why I was thinking fuel air bomb. But the EMP question seems a different matter, because we didn’t seem to have cameras blown out filming small-yield nuclear explosions, and there didn’t seem to be an EMP from trinity, or from Nagasaki, or Hiroshima, it seemed the real EMPs came from when we detonated nukes in orbit, such as Starfish Prime.

[TangoLimaSierra]

I think it was a Donetsk chemical plant.

[JRios1968]

Not as impressive aa the bomb dump I saw go up a few miles south of me a long time ago.

San Antonio, Nov 1963?

"shock waves propagate in a manner different from that of ordinary acoustic waves. In particular, shock waves travel faster than sound, and their speed increases as the amplitude is raised; but the intensity of a shock wave also decreases faster than does that of a sound wave, because some of the energy of the shock wave is expended to heat the medium in which it travels. The amplitude of a strong shock wave, as created in air by an explosion, decreases almost as the inverse square of the distance until the wave has become so weak that it obeys the laws of acoustic waves."

Here is a nice video of a shock wave

[logi_cal869]

It wasn’t a warhead. It was a secondary from shelling. If you look for the other videos, there’s at least one that has audio of multiple impact detonations & flashes, followed by the secondary, largest explosion.

As as aside, the web chatter about this being a nuke is truly ignorant. Not getting into that.

[tanknetter]

The Confederate Air Force used to do simulated nuke detonations as part of their B-29 (FiFi) airshow routine. Not sure whether it involved the aceteline/garbage bag method that you mention, but I do remember it pretty well from an airshow in the early 80s when they were still cooking them off. Big flash, heat and concussion with a neat looking mushroom cloud.

I think they stopped that in the mid-80s when they triggered a diplomatic incident by setting one off at an airshow attended by a fairly high ranking delegation of Japanese military and civilian officials.

[AppyPappy]

“Japanese military and civilian officials.”

I hate it for them. Bataan Death March, ya’ll.

LifeNews report from the site of last night’s attack and explosion, which left a HUGE crater:

[tet68]

Were you in the Chu Lai area?
I was there when they hit our bomb dump.
It sure looked like a nuke haha.
You could even see bombs being carried up
in the air and exploding.
Lucky for the munitions guys it was the second
or third round which set it off and they had a
chance to roll into their holes. Most were left
with nothing but underwear the next day.
When I went out on perimeter guard the next day
the dunes ( it was very sandy there) were covered
with spikey little plants....shrapnel.
I was a mile or so away and the concussion knocked
me over into a fox hole. Hot times.

[Terry L Smith]

It was, indeed, a large flash, wait, boom, with a good shock wave.

I doubt that anyone has put together the idea that the explosive, might be a ‘dirty bomb’?
The Russians had a lot of those in mind for us, too, back in The Cold War days.

Ayway, just another loovely thought on all that obama denied nastiness.

[doorgunner69]

Yep, in Chu Lai for Tet. Was up in the northern end of the field with the F-4 squadrons at the time. Had hot platoon that night, so after the first rocket barrage hit, geared up and was out on the road ready to move out. Sky lit up and scared the bejeesus out of us watching that fireball go up.

Thank God for that sand. As I was running out to the road, a few more rockets cam in. One hit maybe 100' or less in front of me, but with the sand absorbing the blast, all I saw was a big expanding ball of glowing orange bits.

[doorgunner69]

"San Antonio, Nov 1963?"

Nah, Tet, 1968, RVN

[onedoug]

Tet ‘69, NW of Tam Ky was just as bad...from my perspective at least.
