Range of effects misleading?
The section describing the effects of a neutron bomb at various ranges seems to assume the bomb explodes at ground level, but it would likely be detonated at some height. This would drastically increase the actual line of sight distance to the target and therefore decrease the radiation effects. If detonated at ground level, any building or other obstacle between the explosion and the target would effectively block the neutrons. 77.241.128.26 (talk) 11:10, 12 June 2025 (UTC)
