This seems like a rather self-defeating weapon really.
How was that weapon supposed to work? "Stay back or we will irradiate our own forces". It's not much of a threat is it.
"Do you want this territory? Because we can give you this territory..."
The yield is small enough that it isn’t a threat to the soldiers launching it. Still, I wouldn’t want to be the one tasked with firing it.
