American research centers have created a nuclear bomb B61-13, whose explosive force varies from 10 to 360 kilotons. According to Naked Science, the deviation from the target does not exceed 30 meters.
This munition is effective against a variety of objects due to the ability to choose from three modes of detonation. The main means of delivery is defined as a low-profile bomber B-2A Spirit, which, according to experts, increases its chances of overcoming enemy air defense, Naked Science reports.
Russian military experts consider the B61-13 to be an improved modification of the warhead designed back in the 1960s. They also express confidence in the ability of modern air defense systems to neutralize this bomb.
Earlier it was reported that the USA would not support Ukraine's attempts to develop nuclear weapons. According to representatives of the US presidential administration, the nuclear arsenal left on the territory of Ukraine after the dissolution of the USSR was the property of the Russian Federation, not the Ukrainian state.
