15-562: A common fission bomb core design, the Boa primary ; the other weapon using the Boa is claimed to have been the 200 kiloton W52 thermonuclear warhead. The W30 and W31 warheads used simple 3-digit lockout controls on their arming components, and could not be made safe by environmental sensing devices due to their use profile. Other warheads could use sensors to detect whether they had actually been through re-entry or sudden deceleration, prior to arming
