Reactors in a battlefield... sounds like high value targets.

I was thinking that myself. I would not want to be in the vicinity of that for a myriad of reasons.

actually it could have astounding value for SOME of the same reasons they have astounding value in a nuclear submarine....might solve alot of problems brought on by having to fuel conventional large generators...no fuel trucks and the Achilles heal they bring to a fighting unit.  a different set of pros and cons for sure but the pros could outweigh the cons.  depends on just how small/portable they could get it.

It fits on a semi trailer. A nice tight fly by wire ought to create a nuclear nightmare in the base camp.
