China going NUCLEAR in disputed sea: Atomic reactor to be hidden inside SHIPPING CONTAINER

TENSIONS in the South China Sea are set to become nuclear after Beijing unveiled secret plans to float an atomic reactor to the hotly-contested region hidden inside a shipping container.

A nuclear plant is under development in China that would be the world’s smallest – capable of fitting inside a small steel box.

Experts say the technology – dubbed the “portable nuclear battery pack” – could be ready within five years.
