As for radiation fallout, it can be regarded as a short-term sustained kill.

In the perception of ordinary people, radioactive contamination is very terrifying, but in the actual strike planning of the nuclear powers, it is actually on the margins.

As long as the height of the explosion reaches a certain level, the fallout of radiation can be completely avoided.

On May 21, 1956, the TX-15-X1 test device, codenamed Cherokee, was airdropped over Bikini Atoll on Operation RedG.

The fusion warhead has a yield of 3.8 million tons and ultimately does not produce any radiation fallout.

The Trident IID5 missile carries a W88 warhead with a maximum yield of 450,000 tons, and the optimal blast height to optimize the 10 psi shock wave range should be 1,700 meters.

Once the explosion height is greater than 645 meters, the W88 warhead will not be able to create radioactive fallout, and the impact of the killing mechanism of radiation fallout will be negligible.

That is to say, mature fusion weapons, in order to achieve the maximum instantaneous killing effect, almost never produce a wide range of radiation dust outside the range of the shock wave.

This is a passive effect, which is not actually even deliberately avoided, but as long as the maximum instantaneous killing effect is pursued, there will be no widespread radiation dust.

As for that weird nuclear bazooka, it really won't hurt itself.

The range of 50 fatal 5psi shock wave overpressure is about 180 meters, and the range of effect of 1 psi shock wave overpressure and fire storm is about 400 meters.

A bazooka with a normal range of more than 2 kilometers is safe as long as it hits a distance of 500 meters.

The power yield of this thing is only 10 tons, not 100,000 tons, which is just the equivalent of the explosion of 10 iron bombs of 1000 kg.

And there is no shrapnel, it cannot pierce armor, and there will not even be a crater in the case of an air explosion.

How could 10 iron bombs explode in the air, how could it be possible to kill people 2 kilometers away?

The killing range of the little boy is only about two kilometers, and in the historical record, the probability of death has dropped to 5 two kilometers away from the little boy's explosion point.

In that crazy era, all kinds of crazy weapons were produced, but no brain-dead weapons were produced.

In order to attract people's attention and exaggerate the evil and terror of the Soviet Union, the media desperately chose to exaggerate the horror and anti-human degree of the various weapons produced by the other side.

And ordinary people happen to like to watch these things, so the low-level media are even more unscrupulous to their liking.

In the past, there were all kinds of stall literature, and now there are online self-media, and when the information explodes, everything becomes even more unspecious.

In fact, the numbers they claim may be different every time, basically skyrocketing.

The distance at which Big Ivan destroyed masonry buildings was raised from the initial 33 km, to 60 km, then to 100 km, 200 km.

The area of influence has also increased from 55 kilometers all the way to 1,000 kilometers, and only then did there become more exaggerated, pushing the plate to move by 9 millimeters.

The person who spread it naturally felt that what the previous person said was accurate, and when he said it to others, it should be almost the same if he exaggerated it a little bit.

But if the cycle goes on and on, without calculation and verification, the data will only become more and more exaggerated.

Many people are no longer satisfied with destroying the world once, but want to destroy the world several times, dozens of times, hundreds of times.

It is as if the manufacture and maintenance of superweapons do not cost money.

As long as people in their right minds understand that destroying the world once is enough.

Isn't it brain-dead to keep weapons that are several times larger than the destruction of the world and spend horrific maintenance costs?

But it is clear that the decision-makers and scientific workers of the nuclear powers cannot be brain-dead.

So the brain-dead can only be the editor of the garbage media.

For the information of any era, except for first-hand data, it is basically not completely credible.

Other people cite first-hand data, and the comments should also be deleted, leaving only the quoted content.

The historical data provided in Mufeng's scientific research system is the first-hand data that has been screened in this way.

The data comes from photographers who actually participated in the experiments, engineers involved in the development and production of fission and fusion weapons, and nuclear strategic planning teams from the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War.

put the first-hand data they provided together with the editor of the garbage self-media.

Which is more credible, is obvious.

Mu Feng leaned back in his chair, let out a long breath, and shook his head slowly.

Xiao Shi had been standing by and watching, watching Mu Feng's reaction, and tilted his head slightly

"Commander, you seem to be a little surprised."

Mu Feng blinked and nodded slowly

"It turns out that the power of this weapon is not as terrifying as I imagined, and the power is much lower than what most people imagine."

Xiao Shi opened his mouth, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face, which had been flat and abnormal

"A lot lower than expected? Are you serious? ”

Mu Feng was stunned

"Am I wrong? Is there a problem with the data in the scientific equipment? ”

Xiao Shi looked at the content on the screen in front of Mu Feng's eyes, and then slowly shook his head

"Of course, this data is fine, but you can change the simulation from the surface of the sea to a large human city, and then take a closer look at the results of the simulation."

Mu Feng was stunned for a moment, and also reacted that he had been tinkering at sea before.

Mu Feng hurriedly sat upright, operated scientific research equipment, and simulated a fusion warhead with a yield of 1 million tons detonating at an altitude of 2,000 meters above Central Park in New York.

After the explosion, there was a mess within about 7 kilometers of the center of the explosion, and houses and buildings collapsed in large areas.

This area is about 155 square kilometers, which is equivalent to the core area of a modern city, and the whole is in ruins.

More than 1.2 million people died instantaneously as a result of the shock wave.

More than 2.5 million people have been injured in various degrees of severity.

There was a sea of fire within about 12 kilometers of the explosion.

The area of the fire was more than 460 square kilometers, which is roughly the same area as Haidian District.

The exact number of casualties caused by the fires cannot be accurately estimated, but at least more than 4 million people, which is essentially half of the total population of New York.

Within 20 kilometers of the explosion, the glass on the building shattered, various shantytowns, wooden buildings, and facilities collapsed, and countless people were injured.

At 1,200 square kilometers, the damage was only slightly smaller than the Hawaiian island of Oahu.

This is equivalent to the entire territory of a county-level city, or the entire territory of Oahu, all of which are pierced by the shock wave, leaving basically no intact glass.

After this explosion, a modern metropolis was basically completely finished.

More than half of the population was killed or wounded, and those who were alive were also injured to varying degrees.

The function of the city is completely paralyzed, the central area of the city has become a ruin, and there is a certain amount of radiation residue, and many urban areas have suffered extensive damage.

If it is replaced by a 10 million ton fusion weapon, the instantaneous death toll will directly double to 3 million, and the total number of casualties will reach 6 million

The area of the fire storm reached 32 kilometers and covered 3,400 square kilometers of urban area, which can basically cover the entire core area of Shanghai.

This killing effect is really terrifying!
