	Warhead - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A warhead is an explosive device used in military conflicts, used to destroy enemy vehicles or buildings.
		Typically, a warhead is delivered by a missile, rocket, or torpedo.
		Proximity: Using radar, sound waves, a magnetic sensor, or a laser the warhead is detonated when the target is within a specified distance.

		Warheads that have favorable IM characteristics are not only safer to handle, but are also relatively more effective in defeating targets that are hard to penetrate since detonation of the explosive payload of the warhead can be more precisely controlled, thereby delaying detonation until the warhead has adequately penetrated the target.

	Mating the W31 Nuclear Warhead to the Nike Hercules Missile
		Mating of the warhead was usually a very business-like but relaxed, atmosphere but when a TPI team was present, it became a little tense, as might be expected when every minute operation and technique were under intense scrutiny by the members of the TPI Team.
		When the warhead container was opened and the warhead, riding on rails, was slid forward, beginning the sequence of attaching a lift bar to the 1100 pound warhead and bringing it with a hoist to the attach points at station 87.5 of the missile.
		Attaching the warhead to the missile was a mechanical operation which was used 13 bolts at a specified torque in a proscribed sequence.

	Arms Control Association: Arms Control Today: A Breakdown of Breakout:
		Russian warheads are reported to have a shelf life of approximately 10 years (with newer warheads having a life of 15 years), presumably because the warheads’ conventional high explosives degrade and their fissile components deteriorate.
		Assuming that the warheads are refurbished and returned to their delivery systems one year after removal, one-third of the operational stockpile would have to be replaced every year if the stockpile was to remain constant in size.
		Assuming a warhead life of 10 years, 4,000 warheads (out of 10,000) were retired and fully dismantled; and 4,000 new warheads were produced to keep the stockpile at 40,000 warheads.

		Warhead responded to the fireworks by firing warning shots at the police, but the police had already captured Thurm, and told Warhead they weren't responsible.
		Warhead finally heard the Super-Patriot as he broke out a window and began to scale up the side of the monument, and he tried to shoot him down, but the Super-Patriot avoided his bullets.
		Warhead blew himself up mid-air with a grenade, vowing to go out "like a man!" Super-Patriot then recovered the bomb and turned it over to the authorities to be disarmed.

		The treaties are silent on the disposition of the warheads.
		The warheads that will be withdrawn to meet the lower numerical ceilings will then become either operational spares or a part of the hedge or replacement stockpiles.
		Warheads that are, or will be, in the hedge include the W62 and W78 from the Minuteman III ICBM, W76s from downloaded Trident SLBMs, and B61 and B83 bombs and W80 air-launched cruise missile warheads for B-1 bombers that could return to the nuclear strike force.

		The warhead yield can be upgraded from 300 Kt to 475 Kt by adding rings or a sleeve of oralloy (highly enriched uranium) to the second stage.
		Warhead is more efficient in its use of special nuclear materials than the similar yield W-78.
		This warhead was to have a higher yield than the Mod 0, which probably indicates the use of the oralloy ring upgrade option for a 475 Kt yield.

	CNN.com - Prelim nerve warhead test negative - Apr. 13, 2003
		The warhead tested at zero on a six-bar scale in two separate "Improved Chemical Agent Monitor" (ICAM) tests conducted by U.S. soldiers after two other tests performed with ICAM equipment by other soldiers scored one bar each time.
		The earlier trace amounts were found in two spots on the baseball bat-length warhead -- at the rear and in the middle where there is a screwed-down circular area about the size of a quarter.
		The warhead is about the width of a coffee can and is marked with a green band which, military sources told CNN, is the universal symbol for chemical weaponry.

		This suspected chemical warhead discovered at an air base near Kirkuk is marked with a green band, which sources said is the symbol for chemical weaponry.
		The warhead was found in a box Friday during routine operations to secure the airfield by the U.S. 173rd Airborne Brigade.
		The warhead tested at one bar on a six-bar scale, which would be consistent with leakage from a chemically armed weapon, military sources said.

	NTI: Securing the Bomb: Warhead Dismantlement Transparency
		Similarly, warhead dismantlement transparency was not a major focus of the "Safeguards, Transparency, and Irreversibility" (STI) talks of the mid-1990s, though in a paper outlining the U.S. concept for the overall direction of transparency efforts tabled in December 1994, U.S. negotiators suggested that unspecified measures to confirm warhead dismantlement should be developed and applied.
		For example, as a warhead was first being removed from a particular type of missile (so that there was high confidence that object really was the warhead type for that missile), measurements could be taken on that warhead (or more likely a selection of several such warheads) to create the original template.
		Then, when warheads arrived at a monitored dismantlement facility and were declared to be warheads of that type, measurements would be taken and compared to the template to see whether there was a match or not.

		There is a guy posting that his son has a revo and the son drove the warhead and said you better watch out dad...
		just keep in mind that the warhead is definatly a very new truck and there are some things that look like the company will improve on, (seal around the head for instance) but i dont think it really takes away from the overall quality of the truck.
		BTW the warheads that are out there are "sneak peaks" to dealers, so I think they are doing this to get feedback from the few that get them - the finals that people get may have these fixes all worked out when they get them - IE tower fills orders....

		MOSCOW Russia is developing a new generation of warheads that can elude any kind of missile defense, though a Russian general stressed yesterday that the technology was not aimed at thwarting U.S. deployment of a new missile-defense system.
		Missiles equipped with the new warheads would be able to evade sophisticated defense systems by changing trajectory to avoid the range of interceptor missiles, said Gen. Yuri Baluyevsky, first deputy chief of the Russian armed forces' General Staff.
		Baluyevsky said the warhead technology would be ready for deployment no later than 2010.

	Russian warhead alters course midflight in test - Nation/Politics - The Washington Times, ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The warhead was flight tested on a Russian Topol-M missile, designated by the Pentagon the SS-27, that flew from the Kapustin Yar launch complex in southern Russia near Volgograd.
		Unlike current ballistic warheads that do not alter their flight paths sharply once they reach space, the new warhead can change course and range while traveling at speeds estimated at about 3 miles per second, the officials said.
		Maneuverability would let a warhead thwart missile defenses, because such countermeasures rely on sensors to project a warhead's flight path and impact point so that an interceptor missile can be guided to the right spot to knock out a warhead.

		The officials, who discussed the intelligence on the condition of anonymity, said Iran's new nuclear warhead program includes what specialists call the basic "physics package" for fitting a nuclear bomb inside the nose cone of a missile.
		The warhead is based on an indigenous Iranian design and is not being built from design information supplied by the covert nuclear network headed by Pakistani technician Abdul Qadeer Khan, who has admitted supplying nuclear goods to Libya, Iran and North Korea, the officials said.
		Other officials said the intelligence revealed that Iranians belonging to the Atomic Energy Agency of Iran were conducting research and testing on development of a nuclear warhead for a missile.

		That compromise shifted $ 9 M from “Advanced Concepts” (which really was designing new nuclear weapons) to the “Reliable Replacement Warhead” program that would “improve the reliability, longevity, and certifiability of existing weapons and their components.”
		NNSA and the labs have suggested that the program would support the development of new warhead designs—something might require testing or be used to develop new military capabilities inconsistent with US commitments under the NPT.
		Admittedly, the distinction between modified and new warheads has always been a little arbitrary—something the Steve Rademaker preyed on in his speech scolding oponents of the RNEP for not also complaining about the B-61 Mod 11 (Rademaker didn’t mention the B-61 Mod 11 program was classified—more on this little lie later).
