Weapons-Weapons Deadly Almost Same As Nuclear Bomb
Forget about nuclear weapons, biology and chemistry because now all over the world, especially the former conflict areas in Africa, the Middle East, Indochina, the Balkans and so millions of children and innocent people killed by gun- weapons in military circles it is called as conventional weapons.
The weapons like cluster bombs, phosphorous bombs, napalm, bullets DU (Depleted Uranium), land mines are very popular for use in the battle because in addition it affordable even for poor despite the country's military, this weapon also has a damaging effect is great enough.
However, in its development of these weapons would be a time bomb because it is very pronounced effect on post-war period.
Some weapons like cluster bombs and land mines has indeed been banned by the UN to be produced and used in warfare, but the business interests of producer countries like the U.S., Israel, France, China, Russia and others have closed the eyes of the hearts of politicians and military experts in many countries to continue to use and produce these weapons.
To our knowledge all of the following are some details of these controversial weapons.
1. Cluster Bomb
Cluster bombs or cluster bombs or cluster bombs are bombs that have a unique mechanism whereby after launch from a fighter or bomber, the bomb will burst into hundreds of small bombs in the form of cans.
At the beginning of this bomb was created to destroy the air base runway, a convoy of armored vehicles or to disperse the concentration of ground forces.
Produced by various names such as CBU / Cluster Bomb Units (United States), Belouga (France), Excalibur (United States). Effectively this bomb used in war Iraq, Afghanistan and the Arab-Israeli war.
2. Napalm Bomb
Many nations protested when Indonesia used napalm bombs in Seroja operations in East Timor in the 70s, but in a larger scale the U.S. use these bombs in the conflict in Vietnam and Israel in the Yom Kippur war, but not many countries that protest.
Technically, napalm is a bomb fuel that contains certain chemical substances in paste form that will burn so bomb burst on the ground. Liquid paste that will spread the flames in different directions and this bomb is very effective to destroy the bersembuni ground troops in the trenches or forest.
3. Bullet DU (Depleted Uranium)
Depleted uranium bullets are the type of bullet that was developed from the results of Uranium waste dismantling nuclear bomb. It literally means uranium depleted uranium radiation is attenuated. These bullets are very powerful and become the standard weapon cannon GAU-8 Avenger Gatling which brought A-10 aircraft as well as Bushmaster cannons on Bradley APC.
DU was also used to make anti-material core bullets on Abrams tanks. The effectiveness of this weapon is able to penetrate any thickness of steel tanks and is proven in the Iraq war in which hundreds of Iraqi tanks become victims of this weapon.
What makes this weapon is controversial uranium content of which turned out according to the research still emit dangerous levels of radiation in humans.
This tebukti the case in Bosnia when some Italian soldiers suffering from leukemia a few days after using these bullets. in Iraq, the tanks were destroyed by a bullet it was emitting radiation that made wrecked tanks are not safe to be approached.
