On October 23, Russian Defense Minister Shoigu urgently spoke with the defense ministers of the United Kingdom, Turkey, France and the United States, saying that Ukraine is planning to use " dirty bomb " to blame the Russian army, pointing out that the UK has provided corresponding technical support to Ukraine, while Ukraine and the United Kingdom refuted it.

The production of dirty bombs is very simple, but the harm is very great
Dirty bombs are internationally banned weapons. Dirty bombs will not produce large-scale nuclear explosions . The terrifying thing about dirty bombs is that they throw radioactive particles into the air, causing the entire area to be polluted.
If a dirty bomb explodes, the entire area will be contaminated. After that, it will be a radioactive area for decades or even hundreds of years, and humans cannot survive.
dirty bomb
dirty bomb If released in densely populated areas, people who are exposed to the radioactive substance in a short period of time will die directly, and people who are indirectly exposed will suffer from chronic poisoning or cancer.
dirty bomb technology is much simpler than nuclear weapon . Traditional explosives such as yellow explosives can detonate dirty bombs, and the explosive power of the explosives drives radioactive particles inside the dirty bombs.
dirty bombs have more concealment. Small dirty bombs can be loaded in a normal backpack. Most of the time, small dirty bombs are difficult to know if they are not detected, because the appearance of dirty bombs is almost indistinguishable from ordinary bombs. It is so simple to wrap explosives with spherical or powdery cobalt-60, cesium-137 or strontium-90 and other radioactive substances.

depleted uranium bomb is a dirty bomb?
I see many amateur marketing accounts that actually say that "dirty bombs" are depleted uranium bombs, which really makes me laugh. Depleted uranium bombs are mainly used to break armor and make armor. The radioactive substances are much smaller than the real "dirty bombs" radioactive particles. The molecular structure of depleted uranium bombs and "dirty bombs" is completely different. depleted uranium is nuclear waste .
depleted uranium bomb
depleted uranium bomb was used on a large scale in the Gulf War in the United States. The number is conservatively estimated to exceed 800,000, with a total weight of more than 3,200 tons. Its main function is to attack T-2 tanks. From 1994 to 1995, 10,800 depleted uranium bombs were launched in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In 1999, NATO bombed Yugoslavia and released 31,000 depleted uranium bombs in 78 days.

really used depleted uranium bomb
such a large number, if depleted uranium bomb really has super radioactivity like a dirty bomb, then I am afraid that those areas are still uninhabited. Depleted uranium bomb does have radioactive substances that can make people poison and suffer from cancer, but it is not worth mentioning compared with dirty bombs.
Dirty bombs are internationally banned weapons, and dirty bombs are not. The number of US military used is almost 2 million. Depleted uranium bombs are also divided into sizes. The largest ones are specifically designed to attack buildings. Each depleted uranium bomb is 6 meters longer and contains more than 100 kilograms of uranium material.
small ones are anti-tank depleted uranium bombs, each with an uranium content of more than 3.2 kilograms, and there is also an oversized depleted uranium bomb with a size of more than 600 kilograms, which are mainly used to attack airport runways and important urban facilities.
Many countries have used depleted uranium for the development of new ammunition and have produced depleted uranium bombs. Depleted uranium powder is a flammable and explosive substance that can spontaneously ignite at room temperature. During friction or impact, it can oxidize and burn in the air, release a large amount of energy and explode. The metal rod made of depleted uranium shows spontaneous sharpness after hitting an object driven by kinetic energy, and its penetration ability is much higher than that of the general armor-piercing bomb . Based on this characteristic of depleted uranium, the United States has been studying and manufacturing various depleted uranium weapons since the 1950s. The United States has made breakthrough progress in the utilization of depleted uranium, and the newly developed armor-piercing bombs in the 1970s began to be equipped with troops. During the Gulf War, the United States used depleted uranium armor-piercing bomb .
depleted uranium is a by-product obtained after extracting the nuclear material uranium 235 from metal uranium . Its main component is uranium 238, which has weak radioactivity, so it is called depleted uranium, or depleted uranium for short.
The uranium in nature is composed of uranium 234, uranium 235 and uranium 238. Among them, only uranium 235 is a fission element, which can be used in nuclear fission reaction , for the production of nuclear weapons and as fuel for the nuclear reactor. [12] U235 accounts for only 0.72% of pure natural uranium, and U238 has an absolute advantage. Therefore, natural uranium must be processed into enriched uranium with high U235 content. When enriched uranium is extracted, the vast majority of the remaining is uranium 238, as well as a small amount of uranium 235 and uranium 234. This uranium with a lower U235 content than natural uranium is called depleted uranium. The U.S. Atomic Energy Standards Committee (NRC) sets uranium with uranium 235 less than 0.711% as depleted uranium. The U.S. Department of Defense sets the Department of Defense standard that the uranium 235 content is below 0.3%, while the actual standard used is 0.20%.

The United States has everything
Whether it is a "dirty bomb", a nuclear weapon or a depleted uranium bomb, the United States has it, and the United States is the first to use it. After the United States has used it, it banned other countries from researching and developing, but the United States has taken all the "bids" brought by new weapons. The reason why the United States won the Gulf War at a very small price was due to the use of this weapon by the United States.
The United States played 6. While using depleted uranium bombs to penetrate the T-2 tank, it also used depleted uranium to coat its own tank , resulting in no American tank being penetrated. The power of
depleted uranium bomb is mainly used on the battlefield, and the use of "dirty bombs" is to destroy humans. Theoretically, "dirty bombs" can be equated with nuclear weapons.
