Portable nuclear reactors can revolutionize technology.

Portable nuclear technology is the tool. That offers new energy solutions for new types of systems. The problem is that the military. And other types of infrastructure. Require lots of energy. 

New AI-based systems. Like adapting camouflage. And especially drones are problematic things. The AI requires lots of energy, and in the same way. Defense against drone swarms requires directed energy weapons. Those directed energy weapons require electricity. The Shahed-136-type drones can give. All platforms have an attack range of about 1000 kilometers. 

The small drone with a hollow warhead. It can cause lethal damage. If. It hits the nuclear submarines. Small nuclear systems. Can offer new types of abilities to small systems. Plutonium batteries offer a small drone. It uses an electric engine and a propeller. Unlimited. Operational range. Those drones can be airborne, underwater unmanned vehicles (UUV), and surface drones.

Portable, or miniature nuclear reactors. It can give a new capacity. To a small submarine. Like the Swedish A26 (The Blekinge) class. The Swedish A26 is a silent diesel-electric submarine that uses air-independent diesel-electric engines. Those submarines are shown to be effective when they could damage or even destroy the U.S fleet carrier during a naval drill. That submarine can be even more effective. If. It can have nuclear engine ability. 

That so-called micro reactors can offer. Micro-sized nuclear reactors. Are planned. To use as a portable energy solution for military operations and anti-drone systems. But they can also give. New abilities in all types of logistics. From trucks and other vehicles. Those systems can offer aircraft and ships almost unlimited operational range. Small-sized systems. That offers electricity. And heat to limited areas. Can make the networked energy solutions possible also in civil infrastructure.

"PoNu" or portable nuclear reactors will change many things.

Portable nuclear reactors the container-size nuclear systems. The power of those reactors is less than 50 megawatts. Or 10-50 megawatts. Portable nuclear reactors make possible to create of things like scramjet-powered hypersonic aircraft possible. 

Hydrogen is the best fuel in hypersonic aircraft. And portable nuclear reactors are making it possible to create hydrogen by using electrolysis. 

Hydrogen can also use in cars and other vehicles as fuel. The hydrogen-powered car that uses hydrogen as fuel requires only electricity and water to create hydrogen. The thing that makes electricity for electrolysis is not important. 

And the same systems that deliver electricity to electric vehicles. Can use to deliver electricity to the electrolysis chamber. The problem is how to produce that electricity without emissions. 

The electrolysis chamber can be on the body of the car or aircraft. And operators can just connect the electric wire to the aircraft. 

The system conducts water into the electrolysis chamber. And in that chamber, electricity breaks water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. That means space rockets can also use similar systems for creating their fuel.  

Portable nuclear reactors are also effective systems for making electricity for DEW (Directed Energy Weapons) like laser systems. The only thing that a laser system needs is electricity. And portable nuclear reactors guarantee every laser station has an independent power source. 

A nuclear reactor makes it possible to create electricity that makes the system independent from the regular power source. The portable nuclear reactor that is connected to aircraft can make an airspace system with virtually unlimited operational time. And that kind of system can also deliver electricity to other systems around that aircraft.
