[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1409775, member: 18945"] He may have 'wanted to' CB, but the cobalt bomb was just a fresh idea in the head of scientist Leó Szilárd in the early '50s. The cobalt bomb itself, unless Russia covertly has one, still doesn't exist today..it's never been built. [i]No cobalt or other salted bomb has ever been atmospherically tested, and as far as is publicly known none have ever been built. In light of the ready availability of fission-fusion-fission bombs, it is unlikely any special-purpose fallout contamination weapon will ever be developed. The British did test a bomb that incorporated cobalt as an experimental radiochemical tracer (Antler/Round 1, 14 September 1957). This 1 kt device was exploded at the Tadje site, Maralinga range, Australia. The experiment was regarded as a failure and not repeated.[/i] [/QUOTE]
