The weapon was produced in two models; the enhanced radiation (ERW) W79 Mod 0 and fission-only W79 Mod 1. Both were plutonium -based linear-implosion nuclear weapons . The Mod 0 was a variable yield device with three yields, ranging from 100 tons of TNT (420 GJ ) up to 1.1 kt (4.6 TJ ) and an enhanced- radiation mode which could be turned on or off
The determining factor was whether or not the mounting was provided with an anti-aircraft fire control system and a method for setting the time fuze in the A.A. warhead, fired by the gun. Starting with the Tribal class , the Royal Navy introduced a series of destroyer classes that had dual-purpose guns, but in 4.7 inch QF Mark XII , twin CP Mk.
