If the US is saying Iran could do it, the US has probably already figured it out. Fallout is getting to be too damn real
Correction an Appalachian born yuppie with no technical knowledge claims they could do it. Unless Vance got bored and went through data on the nuclear arsenal then it's probably a safe bet that he's making shit up. Tactical nukes are a thing and backpack nukes are somewhat possible by an army definition of portable, but a nuclear suicide vest is just fucking asanine. Frankly speaking given the general purge of everyone with competency and the general ratfucked nature of these waste of biological matter I wouldn't be surprised to find out that the nuclear arsenal isn't even fully understood anymore because everyone competent was fired or fucked off.
