Tactical nuclear weapons are those under
a certain
limit, let's say 1MT of explosive power. These weapons are intended to be
"lobbed" over a mountain into a remote battlefield, thus eliminating a
huge number of the enemy with one blow.

Davy Crockett--a
76 pound, 1.2 to 2.5 mile range projectile launched from a recoilless
rifle (with an explosive yield as low as .01 kilotons or 10 tons)--was
deployed from 1961 until 1971
The B61-11's unique earth-penetrating characteristics and wide range of
yields allow it to threaten otherwise indestructible targets from the air--or,
in Pentagonese, to hold such targets "at risk." That makes the B61-11 a uniquely
useful warfighting tool.

Tactical Nuclear Weapons
Tactical nuclear weapons are those under a
certain limit, let's say 1MT of explosive power. These weapons are intended to
be "lobbed" over a mountain into a remote battlefield, thus eliminating a huge
number of the enemy with one blow. Fortunately, they have never been used. This
is not to say that the world has not come close. It is well known today, from
inteviews with Commanders of the former Soviet Union military, that during the
Cuban Missile Crisis, that if President Kennedy had launched a conventional
attack on Cuba, the local Soviet Commanders had been given control of their
tactical nuclear weapons. Thus if the Soviets had begun to lose the battle,
there would have been little to keep them from using those tactical nuclear
weapons, just 300 miles South of Florida.
Tactical nuclear weapons can be delivered in
a variety of methods, and in fact are found in the first five classes of
delivery systems shown above.
Prior to the retirement from active U.S.Air
Force regular units in 1979, the U.S. Air Defense Command operated the F-106
Delta Dart, a delta winged Mach 2 (barely) fighter, which carried, as a
air-to-air combat missile, the Genie. The Genie was a nuclear tipped weapon
which was intended to take out a whole squadron of attacking bombers, assuming
of course the F-106 could get close enough, and that of course the squadron were
flying close enough together, say as in a formation. As the Soviets learned of
this weapon, their tactics for airborne attack changed, and thus the Genie and
the F-106 became obsolete overnight.
Today, cruise missiles are the primary
delivery system for tactical nuclear weapons. For example, a derivative of the
now famous Tomahawk cruise missile, called TLAM-N (Tactical Land Attack Missile
- Nuclear) can be launched from the tube of a submarine, or off the decks of a
naval surface ship (such as a pre-Arleigh Burke class cruiser) or from vertical
launch tubes built into the deck of the Arleigh Burke class cruiser.
Airborne tactical missiles, such as the U.S.
SRAM (Short Range Attack Missile carried for years on the venerable B-52G/H and
FB-111A) and ALCM (Air Launched Cruise Missile also carried by the B52G and
could also be carried by FB-111 if the need arose) were extremely potent
weapons, since a fleet of aiircraft armed with these missiles multiplied their
squadron by a factor of 12. Each missile could be a decoy or be fully armed, the
opposition would never know. Thus valuable airborne defense elements would be
required to intercept each and every cruise missile as well as their mother
aircraft which was also armed with strategic nuclear weapons.

throats of babies.
