Julin Bristol

Julin Bristol

Julin Bristol was the last British nuclear test, and took place at the Nevada Test Site on 26 November 1991. With a yield of less than 20 kilotons it may have been a test of some aspect of the British-designed warheads fitted to those Trident missiles in the British arsenal, possibly of a low yield mode.
