Thanks for this, I didn't know people thought that nuclear-proof meant that it could literally take a nuke. I certainly hope people haven't been thinking that a MOPP suit will make one a super soldier impervious to nukes or anything considered a chemical (which could be interpreted as all matter).
That's what I'd assume based on the name. If it's radiation/fallout proof, I'd expect them to list it that way.
I assumed it was designed to survive some proximity to a nuclear strike. But definitely not a close-hit, or direct strike.
Far enough away and shielded enough that the flash of radiation doesn’t render its occupants immediately dead.
I know I was assuming that the Russians claimed that they were nuclear bomb proof, at least for the 30 seconds that I knew about them before I read this thread. Seeing the picture I didn't believe that they were in in actuality.
Most people still think the explosion at Chernobyl was an accident.
What are you talkin about, everyone knows the longer you sweat in a MOPP suit the more rad resistance you develop, especially on a hot day
