- Summary
- In planning a fire defense program against the threat of nuclear attack, the reduction of fire vulnerability by removing or covering ignitable materials and by reducing the concentration of combustibles in cities is equally important as the development of a capability to control and extinguish fires.
- This report describes the general dimensions of the fire threat resulting from nuclear attack, particularly as a result of ignition of thin materials by the thermal (heat) flash.
