	List of nuclear weapons - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		France is said to have an arsenal of 350 nuclear weapons stockpiled as of 2002.
		All constructed weapons were verified by IAEA and other international observers to have been dismantled, along with the complete weapons program, and their highly enriched Uranium was reprocessed back into low enriched form unsuitable for weapons.

	Nuclear weapon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The detonation of a nuclear weapon is accompanied by a blast of neutron radiation.
		Nuclear weapons were symbols of military and national power, and nuclear testing was often used both to test new designs as well as to send political messages.
		Nuclear weapons have been at the heart of many national and international political disputes, and have played a major part in popular culture since their dramatic public debut in the 1940s, and have usually symbolized the ultimate ability of mankind to utilize the strength of nature for destruction.

		A 1989 Greenpeace publication lists a total of 383 nuclear weapons involved in navy incidents between 1965 and 1977, and a 1985 General Accounting Office study noted that the navy had reported 233 incidents involving nuclear weapons between 1965 and 1983.
		As long as nuclear weapons are in the custody of the armed services, handling accidents seem inevitable, although the likelihood of the most violent incidents of the past has been reduced.

		3-8 kilograms are said to be required for nuclear explosive device though the "significant quantities standard" should, according to some experts, be lowered to as little as 1 kilogram of plutonium (however, such a bomb would require supercompression techniques beyond the reach of most states).
		Creates nuclear explosion; 6-25 kilo-grams are said to be minimally required for making a nuclear bomb (though some experts say the significant quantities standard should be lowered to as little as three kilograms of highly enriched uranium (HEU).

	Where they were \| thebulletin.org
		We estimate that roughly half of the 150 nuclear weapons currently deployed in Europe are allocated to six NATO countries: Belgium, Germany, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, and Turkey.
		The political history of the deployment of nuclear weapons is even less well known than their military history and it remains an important but virtually unwritten chapter of the Cold War.
		Nuclear weapons and deployments now play a relatively marginal part in U.S. military strategy, but the great secrecy associated with deployments, even when they have long been overtaken by events, shows that nuclear weapons remain highly sensitive in international politics.
