    Maybe but no not really the triggering process is extremely fast but kinda fragile because everything needs to be compressed just so.

    They upgrade them, it’s public knowledge for the budget. Usually it’s faster smaller or different form factor plus renewal programs.

      But any knowledge on how modern triggering works on them I’d imagine would be kept a state secret wouldn’t it? I don’t think it’s something you’d want others to know.

        Someone has to know because scientists and engineers are educated in universities and not in military boot camps. Universities are the origin of all scientific expertise in a nation, including the nation’s military.

          They hid the Manhattan project really really well, if you’ve ever looked into the history.

            That was 80 60 years ago.

            The knowledge required to design ignition systems is from the thousands of people who’ve gone through, or are currently in, universities.

            Plus, the physics, and challenges, haven’t changed.

            It’s a different game now.
