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..." The only way those dropped Mk 84 could have been a kind of uranium weapon would be that they contained DU. Would make sense to me, but I never read that such a version of the Mk 84 existed. Anybody any info about that? Thanks, MCN |
