Nuclear Depth Charges are Depth Charge Tube ammunition.

Description

Nuclear Depth Charges are a special type of ammunition for the Depth Charge Tube. When they impact they set off a nuclear blast similar to the Nuclear Shell or Nuclear Depth Decoy, which like them is capable of killing whole swarms, or destroying entire submarines in one hit.

Function

Nuclear Depth Charges can be placed in Depth Charge Loaders to be used as ammunition for the linked Depth Charge Tube.

They cause insane amounts of Burns and Deep Tissue Injuries, very high amounts of Radiation Sickness and have a 5% chance to inflict high amounts of Bleeding in a 15 meter radius. Additionaly they cause an EMP with a 20 meter radius, frying all devices in range, and a radiation cloud with a 10 meter radius, causing Radiation Sickness in the area over the next 10 seconds.

• They can be loaded with any small item, most notably with explosives, which detonate on impact.
