Similar as the Su-25 I expect. The expectation was that all of them would be gone inside two weeks in a full scale war with the Soviets in Eastern Europe. They had a job to do namely blunt the initial tank assault and they would die doing it.

An A-10 Pilot Could Hope to Last Two Weeks Against the Soviets

Cold War planners expected to lose up to 60 A-10s a day

It's a plane that excels at providing support to ground based forces while the skies are largely secured. For every other scenario expendable drones are superior.

I am quoting you what is the current debate in the nuclear literature,
as I said the current norm that I respect and everyone else respects given that it's law is 10msievert,

but my suspicion is that we can go way over 100msievert and this isn't a controversial claim, many proffesional societies and regulators have began to question the LNT model thanks to the Data that we have from the other accidents.

So Nico. why don't you walk the walk instead of talk the talk and volunteer to take the 100 msievert to prove your point then?

high end waste at Koeberg is stored on site, other waste goes to Vaalputs in the Karoo, basically a hole in the ground in the middle of nowhere.


You need to distinguish, ITER has many buildings, the Radwaste building stores the radiation waste or takes it for treatment. The TAPB building transforms into a treatment facility in phase 2.
The containment works a bit different than at an ordinary fission building, ITER is equipped with Blanket modules that absorbs most of the particle fluxes.

The containment in ITER is magnetic plasma Nico.

And the high level waste site at Koeberg is almost full. The plant was designed for 40 years. How do you plan to extend the high level waste site to take 50% more waste? Send in guys in lead suits to construct it?

 

[Cosmik Debris]

that speaks to the point that low dose radiation isn't that dangerous.....
non iodizing radiation is only dangerous if you heat it up significantly.

You mean non ionizing radiation Nico, like from your cell phone? BUt uoo changed the subject again as usual.

Now can you get back to the topic - The Russo- Ukranian war in 2022, not in 1834.

you just need to expand the treatment facility at Vaalputs. Nuclear Waste is one of those few problems that makes sense to kick the can down the road. Radioactive material has a half life, as you wait longer, more and more material have reached their half life, leaving you with less to treat.

In economic terms it implies a negative interest rate.

NERSA should have a fund ready to deal with the treatment, decommissioning is normally included in the tariff structure. It comes down to around 10-15% of the initial cost.

The Nazis are doing radiation drills, with masks and suits and hose pipes
They are even swallowing tablets, fake tablets

And you tested those tablets to 0pprove they're fake in your certified pharmaceutical laboratory?

The containment in ITER is magnetic plasma Nico.

that is to confine the plasma reaction, the Tokamak has two sets of magnets whose combines configuration creates that donut shape.

That is different than radiation shielding and radioactive containment.

ITER has a system of multiple layers of confinement, the last being the concrete walls. You had a dynamic confinement (a high differential pressure https://www.iter.org/mach/VacuumVessel), blanket, diverters, ventilation system etc all playing a different role.




Radiation shielding gets complicated and requires an expertise on its own, the materials at ITER and HPC are specially mixed to insure compliance. non compliance, like cutting a rebar is why @buka001 fires his engineers.

 

[Cosmik Debris]

that is why continuing this war is completely idiotic.
What is more important?
US face saving by trying to prevent the collapse of a corrupt and ineffective Ukrainian state?
Preventing a nuclear war?

Russia is the one trying to save face. They're on about day 160 of their 3 day special operation. which has turned into a war...

how many armies can withstand a 160 day constant pounding and still be on the offensive?

The one advantage of getting old is that you accumulate a helluva lot of actual, real-world experience and knowledge as opposed to youngsters who rely on YouTube, Insta, TikTok, Whatsapp, Telegram, FB, and Twitter (and those are the 'credible' sources) for knowledge and information.

And those kids will never believe you have that experience and have seen whatever the subject is yourself when they have only ever seen it on a screen and it may be manipulated.

Many om MyBB call me a liar for the amount of experience I can recount. So much so that my son advised me not to reveal any more of my experiences as he knows that kids these days will never see what we did and sit in front of screens these days.

 

[Cosmik Debris]

According to Cosmic they are one

Liar. Russia is a member of the UN and one of five members with a veto vote. Next lie about me gets you reported.

How does one test for going senile

Start name calling and alluding to mental cognitively instead of answering questions and you will soon find out the results of the report function. I've had enough of your childish facetiousness.

Putin Agreed to Send IAEA Mission to Ukraine Plant, Macron's Office Says​

PARIS (Reuters) - French President Emmanuel Macron told his Russian counterpart on Friday that he is concerned about safety risks at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant in Ukraine, the Elysee said, adding that Putin had agreed to send a mission of experts from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to the site.
The two presidents agreed to continue their talks in the coming days, according to a readout sent to journalists by Macron's office.

How does one test for going senile

Generally speaking, the army types get senile when they have to revert to the disorganized nature of civilian life. A good treatment would be to move to Germany where everything functions in a robotic fashion.

 

[Cosmik Debris]

So where's the supposed danger then?? No issues with shelling.

What happens when you shell the steam generator and the primary reactor cooling circuit is breached? Do you understand how nuclear plants operate?

 

[Cosmik Debris]

They aren't designed for military aircraft, only civilian, thet are also designed for TNT explosions and terrorist attacks (at least the French ones). Trouble is, if there is a true intent from an organised army then no design will stop it.

So military aircraft are much bigger than a Boeing 747 then?

 

[Cosmik Debris]

Military equipment aka two Russia trucks

Even a pistol is not approved.

 

[Cosmik Debris]

You do realize that this time it is YOU who actually argues with someone who knows more about the subject than you? The exact same thing you so often ridicule others for?

Nico was at Pripyat?
