Tsar Bomba Word Most Deadly Weapon Ever Created by ken6488(m): 11:35am On Mar 19, 2022
Tsar bomba is currently operated in Russia,


The bomb was built in 1961 by a group of Soviet physicists that notably included Andrey Sakharov. At the time the Cold War between the U.S.S.R. and the United States had grown increasingly tense. Meant to be a show of Soviet strength, the three-stage bomb was unparalleled in power. It had a 100-megaton capacity, though the resulting fallout from such a blast was considered too dangerous for a test situation. Thus, it was modified to yield 50 megatons, which was estimated to be about 3,800 times the strength of the U.S. bomb dropped on Hiroshima during World War II. In addition, the fusion process of the Soviet device was altered, dramatically lessening the fallout. The resulting weapon weighed 27 tons, with a length of some 26 feet (8 metres) and a diameter of about 7 feet (2 metres). Although officially known as RDS-220, it acquired numerous nicknames, most notably Tsar Bomba in the West.

A Tu-95V bomber was modified to carry the weapon, which was equipped with a special parachute that would slow its fall, allowing the plane to fly a safe distance from the blast. The aircraft, piloted by Andrey Durnovtsev, took off from Kola Peninsula on October 30, 1961. It was joined by an observer plane. At approximately 11:32 AM Moscow time, Tsar Bomba was dropped over the Mityushikha Bay test site on the deserted island of Novaya Zemlya. It exploded about 2.5 miles (4 km) above the ground, producing a mushroom cloud more than 37 miles (60 km) high; the flash of the detonation was seen some 620 miles (1,000 km) away. The resulting damage was equally massive. Severny, an uninhabited village 34 miles (55 km) from ground zero, was leveled, and buildings more than 100 miles (160 km) away were reportedly damaged. In addition, it was estimated that heat from the blast would have caused third-degree burns up to 62 miles (100 km) distant.

Although a success, Tsar Bomba was never considered for operational use

Fun fact only 50 megatons was detonated, instead of 100 megaton

Tsar bomba is not what we should be scared about,
If all this powerful bombs where created with 1960 tech’s

We can’t imagine what this guys have currently

When we say peace should rain

Some kids that don’t know, history will be talking any how, how USA, nato are most advanced military etc can distroy Russia balls,

Like I said before no other deadly weapon like that if it exists it is just an equal


Neither nato or Russia will win world war 3


Main reason nato should stop pushing for war with Russia we don’t want earth to be a nuclear waste

If you don't want that putin has to withdraw his troops from Ukraine. Why can Russia sanctions Ukraine economically instead of war? Do you think making of bomb is useful achievement?
Putin is a bustard if he doesn't press the button in the 1 week. I am sure of one thing , man cannot ruin the earth. Rev 11:18.
