The most long-lasting of all the [[Fuel]], as well as the fuel with the most "bang" in the gas tank. It gives the highest vehicle speed bonus (250%), handily beating out [[Rocket fuel]] (180%).
Nuclear fuel is a type of [[fuel]]. It has the highest energy density and vehicle bonuses of all the fuel types, providing an acceleration bonus of 250% (compared to [[Rocket fuel|rocket fuel]]'s 180%). The vehicle speed bonus (15%) is the same as for rocket fuel.


Nuclear Fuel provides 5.38x as much power per unit as Rocket Fuel, and 4.84x as much power per unit as [[Solid fuel]].
Nuclear fuel is made from rocket fuel and [[uranium-235]], one of each to produce one unit of nuclear fuel.


Unlike Rocket Fuel, Nuclear Fuel is not an intermediate product. It exists only to give you something to do with all that extra [[Uranium-235]] you tend to accumulate at endgame.

Nuclear fuel is a type of fuel. It has the highest energy density and vehicle bonuses of all the fuel types, providing an acceleration bonus of 250% (compared to rocket fuel's 180%). The vehicle speed bonus (15%) is the same as for rocket fuel.

Nuclear fuel is made from rocket fuel and uranium-235, one of each to produce one unit of nuclear fuel.

Trivia

The fuel value of 1.21 GJ is a reference to the movie Back to the Future, in which the flux capacitor requires "1.21 Jigawatts" to function.
