"Depleted uranium dirty nuclear weapons"
Wait til the stories about Sunak being Putin's illegitimate son come out. I'm sitting on it, for now. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|Ich bin ein breakfast taco]]</sup> 16:38, October 24, 2022 (EDT)

=="Depleted uranium dirty nuclear weapons"==
huh? Depleted uranium shells are indeed slightly radioactive, but they are a far cry from dirty bombs. Depleted Uranium is used because it is incredibly dense, so kinetic projectiles (bullets, artillery shells, etc.) hit with more kinetic energy. Depleted uranium is also useful as tank armor, ship ballast, and in the balancing of aircraft. Safe? It depends. Healthy? No, not if you're eating it or otherwise bringing it into your body. But artillery shells containing it are a very far cry from dirty bombs. --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">DavidB4</font>]] <sup>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</sup> 04:24, May 16, 2023 (EDT)
