These Two Container Ships Will Be Carrying Enough Plutonium To Make 80 Nuclear Weapons



Daily Mail: Guarded from terrorists by Royal Navy sub and 50 commandos...the UK ghost ships with enough nuclear fuel for 80 missiles

* Pacific Heron and Pacific Egret ships will sail to Japan for plutonium
* Precious 331kg load could make an incredible 80 nuclear warheads
* Vessels are accompanied by military ships and armed with cannons

Two top secret British ‘ghost ships’ carrying enough plutonium for a huge nuclear arsenal wend their way through the world’s oceans –guarded against terrorists by 50 commandos.
It may sound like a tantalising target for a villain in a James Bond film, but what is potentially the most dangerous secret mission in history is deadly reality.
Two vast container ships – the Pacific Heron and the Pacific Egret – left Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, last month on the first leg of their incredible journey.

: All this trouble to just ship about 800 lbs of plutonium. It tells you how valuable this cargo is.
