The GAR-11/AIM-26 was primarily a weapon-killer. The bomber(s, if any) was collateral damage. The weapon was proximity-fused to ensure detonation close enough so an intense flood of neutrons would result in a instantaneous nuclear reaction (NOT full-scale) in the enemy weapon's pit; rendering it incapable of functioning as designed. Our strategists assumed enemy weapons, like our own, would be salvage-fused - ie, once over enemy territory armed to function during a crash and thus prevent anyone from salvaging the critical material. Back then the weaponeers also assumed the bigger a bomb the better, thus shooting down the bomber only to have a 20 MT bomb go off at ground level was not really one for our side. Fallout anywhere would be disastrous. Hence the neutron flux. AMF our first “neutron bombs” were the GAR-11 and MB1 Genie.
