    Ya, nuclear powered propulsion is only good for subsonic Missiles

    @KerlonceauxIndustries yes but that's not sufficient for a fast missile, it'll probably go at the speed of a 737 realistically

    @BaconEggs Look up nuclear jet engines. The idea is you use heat generated by the reactor to heat air anf produce thrust

    I dont think nuclear power can be used as thrust
