Oh yeah ? Well right back at em-
Given the fact that the U.S. B54 Special Atomic Demolition Munition (SADM) was man portable, it's covert emplacement in or near harbors, SLBM bases, airfields, dams, bridges, airfields, command posts, and nuclear weapons storage areas was probably extensively practiced by KGB and GRU Spetsnaz (Army and Navy) at their training facilities (some of which just happened to resemble NATO bases). Under the circumstances, covert infiltration into NATO territory or even into the U.S. with a SADM would not have been a difficult task during the Cold War. In fact, Soviet KGB operatives stored tons of explosives near U.S. and NATO facilities as revealed by KGB archivist Vasily Mitrokhin in his bestseller "The Sword and the Shield".
The unclassified U.S. Army Field Manual 5-25 reveals the SADM had a mechanical timer with delays avaliable from five minutes to twenty-four hours. The B54 was available to U.S. Army ADM platoons, Special Forces, and U.S. Navy SEAL's from August 1964 to the mid 1980's. In addition to heavy security in storage area's, a mechanical Permissive Action Link was used to prevent unauthorized detonation.
Department of Energy Historical Films offers a short clip on this weapon, entitled "SADM Delivery by Parachutist" (0800031) of nearly ten minutes duration. For more information, visit the 463X0 Home Page and click on the DOE Historical Films link.
