Lead Shield
-----------

The lead shield's only purpose is to prevent the inherent radioactivity
of the bomb's payload from interfering with the other mechanisms of the bomb.
The neutron flux of the bomb's payload is strong enough to short circuit the
internal circuitry and cause an accidental or premature detonation.



Fuses
-----

The fuses are implemented as another safeguard to prevent an accidental
detonation of both the conventional explosives and the nuclear payload. These
fuses are set near the surface of the `nose' of the bomb so that they can be
installed easily when the bomb is ready to be launched. The fuses should be
installed only shortly before the bomb is launched. To affix them before it
is time could result in an accident of catastrophic proportions.
