In this hypothetical they already have the ballistic missile-tech to put a low-yield gun-type fission weapon on it.
What if it once the warhead hits the ground, a chemical propellant is used to send the projectile into a plutonium core?
Basically the warhead detonates on impact, just like Houthi homemade rockets.
We’re talking about a miniature version of Little Boy from WW2, and it works but it’s like 1 kiloton. And there’s 100s of them.
Should Iran get attacked again, a regional nuclear war commences in this scenario.
What happens?

What?
I am going to try and figure some kind of sense out of this. Only 2 countries really have beef with Iran. Israyel nukes the shit out of Iran on day 89. And if the US actually really attacked hard to assume a single bunker or production site would exist after 90 days of air strikes.
And Little Boy was airburst. Contact nukes suck, it limits the area of effect too much and creates too much fallout.
