1% success rate is still 50+ nukes

I don't have a good grasp on the physicality of a nuke.  Can you strap one to an inmate's back, and if so, could they run with that on them?

Is the inmate a convicted sex offender?

They were developed by both sides in the 60's. There was a large mortar-type round that required a special tube to launch, and the backpack types that required a small squad to carry several components individually.  Both were very small yields - a small fraction, maybe 10% or less, of Hiroshima/Nagasaki - meant more for behind the front infrastructure and C3 disruption.

The actual nuke fuel would degrade very rapidly, making the weapon a dirty bomb with not much explosive destruction.  But very, very expensive to maintain the nuke components.

Modern explosives are far less hassle and more concealable; stand-off weapons are more versatile.

If it makes them more energetic, it would probably be a good idea.

Russia has to be down to the bottom of the barrel of troops. Wouldn't be surprised if they are sending kids under 18.

I used to work with a guy who was stationed in West Germany in the 80's. He told me that in the event of a Soviet invasion his unit's job was to helicopter people into certain locations in the fulda gap with a nuke in a backpack. They would land in places where they had drilled shafts into the ground/mountains and drop nukes down them therefore "closing" the fulda gap all within 30 minutes.

I thought he was rough ridin' insane until I googled it and yup....that was a thing.

The Fulda gap a term Cold War kids knew - not really what it was but it was a thing.  I remember my buddies big brothers cominghome from Europe or basic whatever and it was used as they sat in garage crushing pull tab beers and smoking darts

Why are you asking me?

You’re very fixated on me. 

It’s very weird

For simple brained people - everything they don't like is a "Kremlin Talking Point".

Lick and his fellow #neocons/NewMcCarthyites are a simple, yet entertaining people.

they'll have an active role supporting that in Kursk, where they totally won't get sent
