One last note:
You can make a just fission only bomb with just highly enriched (>90%) uranium... again assuming you can actually make the bomb in the correct manner.
The US's early nukes, the ones we dropped on Japan, were fission only.
Still awfully destructive, but ... the opposite of miniaturized.
With fission-fusion (and other more complex setups)... you can get much more destructive power in a lot smaller and less heavy package.
Making a fission only warhead on a missile or in a bomb... you would need something quite large.
Like, hide it in a semi truck or large van and then detonate it.
Or a fuck off huge ICBM.
Basically, its... not very realistic to imagine a fission only nuke as something that could be practially be used by conventional military delivery methods that I am aware that Iran has access to.
Its possible you could make like a suicide bomber truck, an Oklahoma City Bombing / WTC 93 bombing with a nuke.... but this truck, with a goddamned nuke in it, would have to somehow drive to its target.
Not impossible, Ukraine and Israel just managed to sneak basically semi trucks full of drones and shit into enemy territory... but not easy either.
Iran has certainly snuck equipment into Syria, Lebanon, Iraq... but not Israel/Palestine, at least as I am aware, nothing that huge, that heavy.
Iran can and does send funds and basically build a gun, build a mortar, build a bomb kits to Hamas and Hezbollah... as well as train people in being good guerilla fighters... but I've never heard of them delivering something you couldn't smuggle in a car trunk.
I may be not sufficiently informed on... the entirety of everything Iran has managed to smuggle into Israel/Palestine though.
