That's pretty much my take on Hannah's warning about "no limiter" as well. And I agree with the thought that RL-Gryph has 'put the gun on the mantle' so to speak, at least in regards to that possibility.

Said probability however, also begs the question of how is it that Hannah can handle her 262 given this situation; could it be that, as speculated elsewhere that perhaps Mio was NOT the first to make this breakthrough? Only time, and Gryph, can or will tell. And I hope you do choose to tell, the curiosity on that point is going to make it just that much harder to wait till the Hiatus is over myself!

Past that, I have to agree with Zwol; I also allowed myself to be distracted by RL-Los Alamos history. However, once you actually THINK about it, if there was any location doing research into turning Tesla's various brainchildren into working weapon prototypes, burying it in the rest of Project Manhattan (assuming that there even WAS a Manhattan Project in the Strike Witches Universe) makes perfect sense, at least to myself. I don't suppose you're willing to comment on this, G?
