The 280mm Gun at the Nevada Proving Ground (1953)
Producer: US Army (?)
The transportation of this atomic gun is austanding! Unbelievable tools and gigantic trucks for the early 50ies!
The testing of the Mark 9 atomic artillery shell was the Grable event, part of a much larger series of nuclear detonations under the umbrella of Operation Upshot-Knothole in 1953.
