'''Medium Fusion Destructive Devices''' ('''MFDD''') are a rather inclusive category of portable tactical [[nuclear weapon]]s, encompassing destructive yields from 15 kilotons to 30 megatons. These weapons are used for both military and mining purposes, and are often contained in a cylindrical casing which can be affixed to a missile or detonated manually.{{Ref/Book|H4EVG|Page=83}} MFDDs have a relatively simple and unimaginative operating architecture - consisting of a bare cylinder with a keypad.
