>> they can barely get a nuke (probably room-sized, gun type) to go off in a static underground test site

Most major intelligence agencies don't even know where they stand with their nuclear program. It is utterly stupid (although, totally consistent with your lack of intellect) to believe that either of us know with an appropriate degree of certainty what the situation is.

What we do know is that some credible intelligence agencies believe they have the capability.

If they don't have, it is all but certain they will have within a few years. To you, an idiot, it probably doesn't matter. To me, it does.

They are using plutonium. So it wouldn't be a gun type, but an implosion type. Other than that, yeah. Room-sized is very likely.
