What yield was the Beirut explosion?

The damage close to the explosion source is best explained by a yield of 0.8-1.1 kt TNT.

How many KT is a hydrogen bomb?

Hydrogen bombs of more than 50 megatons have been detonated, but the explosive power of the weapons mounted on strategic missiles usually ranges from 100 kilotons to 1.5 megatons.

What was the yield of the bombs in Fallout?

about 200-750 kilotons
Megaton-class thermonuclear weapons had largely been retired by the major nuclear powers in favor of much smaller-yield warheads by the time of the Great War. An average strategic warhead in 2077 had a yield of about 200-750 kilotons, but with a massive increase in radioactive fallout in place of thermal shock.

How much ammonium nitrate was in the Beirut explosion?

Beirut Ammonium Nitrate Blast: Analysis, Review, and Recommendations. A massive chemical detonation occurred on August 4, 2020 in the Port of Beirut, Lebanon. An uncontrolled fire in an adjacent warehouse ignited ~2,750 tons of Ammonium Nitrate (AN), producing one of the most devastating blasts in recent history.

What is the yield of a hydrogen bomb?

about 100,000 kilotons
“Those were small bombs, and they were bad enough.” Hydrogen bombs, he said, would result in a yield of about 100,000 kilotons of TNT, up to several million kilotons of TNT, which would mean more deaths.

What was the yield of the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki?

The Hiroshima bomb, “Little Boy”, is estimated to have been between 12 and 18 kilotonnes of TNT (50 and 75 TJ) (a 20\% margin of error), while the Nagasaki bomb, “Fat Man”, is estimated to be between 18 and 23 kilotonnes of TNT (75 and 96 TJ) (a 10\% margin of error).

What bombs were used in Fallout?

The atomic bomb, a purely fission-based weapon, and the hydrogen bomb, a fission-fusion thermonuclear weapon, were both developed in the Fallout universe, with hydrogen bombs being considerably more dangerous because of the sheer size of their explosive yields.

How many nukes each country has?
