WEAPON OF MASS DESTRUCTION DEFINED ...
The acronym CBRNE (pronounced SEA-BURN- EE), meaning Chemical-Biological-Radiological-
Nuclear-Explosive, has replaced the passé acronyms
NBC (Nuclear, Biological, Chemical) and ABC (Atomic, Biological, Chemical),
employed to describe agents used by some party to intentionally inflict harm on
another party. The official definition from 18 U.S.C. Section 2332a is:
Any explosive, incendiary, poison gas, bomb, grenade, or rocket having a
propellant charge of more than four ounces [113 g], missile having an
explosive or incendiary charge of more than one-quarter ounce [7 g], or
mine or device similar to the above. (2) Poison gas. (3) Any weapon
involving a disease organism. (4) Any weapon that is designed to release
radiation at a level dangerous to human life.
