Time for some stupid science

Alright here we go, we have positive and negative, matter and anti-matter, positron and electron. What is a tad strange amongst the known universe is an absence of high quantities of anti-matter, its almost like it doesn't want to be found. I have an idea, say we somehow create a way to hold anti-matter particles together somehow in a semi-stable manner, whether for transport or storage. Now if we could refine Anti-Plutonium from the anti-matter, and create a stable casing for it for a brief amount of time. With this idea we figure out a way to enrich the Anti-Plutonium making it much more active. Now taking two separate active enriched fissile Plutonium cores, we create a payload delivery system. At the center of this monstrously huge nuclear missile sits an active Anti-Plutonium core. A weapon that when activated fires two separate fissile Plutonium cores at each other at a velocity capable of splitting the atoms of Plutonium, the collision is diverted on impact, as the Plutonium collides and splits with Anti-Plutonium. A brilliant reaction of Matter and Anti-Matter, Plutonium and Anti-Plutonium, the result capable of worldwide devastation. Imagine building such a device, you could literally take over the whole planet by simultaneously threatening all life on the planet simply by the device existing. I wonder, perhaps these are just strange ideas from a strange young fellow somewhere, or perhaps the governments of the planet already have such strange ideas secretly in the works already, we may never know. If anything were created as such we wouldn't know cause we all would be dead too if something went wrong.

    Wouldnt the antimatter and matter just annhilate one another? Youre losing the destructive capability of plutonium by flashing your plutonium and antiplutonium together, big boom but no added benefit of it being fissile material [spoiler]I am not a nuclear physicist but im gonna go out on a limb here and say you arent either.[/spoiler]
