The purpose of this archive is to illuminate the reader regarding the effects of these destructive devices, and to warn against their use.

At this time, although the threat of a nuclear world war has receded, there are other threats to our tentative peace which have emerged. These involve regional conflicts, and the activities of terrorist parties or nations. They involve issues such as plutonium smuggling, and the sale of weapons technology (possibly clandestine) to militaristic nations.

No technical specifications of weapon designs are found on this site. All information is from public sources, or based on reasonable inference or speculation from public information. If at times you are surprised by the level of information presented, then you have already learned a useful lesson - just how much information already exists in the public domain.

Please note that some of the material in the archive is speculation, although well grounded. To support or deny some of the statements requires an extensive weapons testing program. Please use the material as a guide only, and always check the factual base and consistency of the material, no matter where it comes from.

These folks sell no-shit bullet resistent clothing. Hoodies, jackets, sweaters, backpacks, even children's clothing. Everything is type II A and III A. If some folks I know in the military hadn't bought and tested them, I would never have bothered bookmarking this site. Expensive but not nearly as expensive as actual II A and III A vests.
