Caution..."Brown Bunny"

I have shot enough of these things in my time, but there is a BIG one!
"Brown Bunny" was a Brit Army nuclear landmine. Yield about 20kt, but what a code name. Recently declassified, but I do rather admire the sense of humour some civil servant had to come up with that one.
Ah well, back to the regular size which go "phump" when hit rather than (?) rabbit with mushroom?
Regards
Robert

Nuclear Landmine. Eeker

I guess that makes more sense than a Nuke Hand Grenade.

I wonder if the weight of a crat could set that Nuke landmine off?

How would you like to be the one to place it? THEN hope nothing sets it off until you are out of range!!!

btw - what would be the crat killing radius of a 20kt nuke landmine?

Good question. Bet it would be popular in Baghdad, or maybe in the Palistine Territories though. Unlike professional crat hunters those folks don't seem to ever read page two of the instructions.
