Is there a version of the Mk 84 'iron bomb' that contained depleted
uranium (DU) to give the Mk 84 a better performance as bunker buster?
I'm asking as a spokesperson for the State Department said on 8 June
1981 in reaction to the Israeli attack on the Iraqi Osirak/Tammuz 17
nuclear reactor: "US-supplied uranium weapons used in the raid..."


What's the source of the quote? It really doesn't ring true.
