Is it true that antimatter can be used to build a practical weapon with current technology?
Partly. One source notes antimatter production is extraordinarily scarce and costly, while another discusses antimatter's immense energy potential for weapons in exploratory terms. Neither settles whether a practical antimatter weapon is achievable with current technology.
