Hello everyone... this is my first post on ATS... Just to let you all know the Russians did have the largest Nuc ever produced. The weapon was 100MT detonated at half yeild. The reason it was only detinated at half yeild was due to them not truly knowing what a 100MT weapon would do, theories did exsist though. The crew that dropped the bomb was never told they were on a suicide mission either, both crew and plan were destroyed. There is video of the detination from four different cameras that i have seen, three of the four were destroyed as well. Im not sure if the film is still classified, so i won't elaborate on this anymore. but there is a massive area of siberia russia that is uninhabital due to this detination. The discovery channel or TLC did a documentary on it a few years back. I know this info because i am a 2W2 in the USAF and this is my specialty. Have any questions feel free to ask!

Didn't the Russians create the worlds biggest nuke? a 300 Megaton bomb that created a ditch 12 km's down and 300km's across?
I recall saying that before, although it wasnt Russia, it was the US, and dont bother saying it doesnt exist, as its been dismantled and put in a museum and i've seen the pictures.
Nerd you don't know what you're talking about,the US didn't bother trying to make bigger bombs than the Soviets. The US had nothing close to the Tsar Bomb. Stop talking BS.
I've seen the #ing thing.
I see times haven't changed... your still a #ing moron .

I was watching a program on the history channel once and they were talking about how once a nuclear crazy scientist suggested to Nikita Kruschev that they build an atom bomb the size of a giant tanker ship. It was meant to be like a suicide thing so if the soviets cant live then nobody an lol. But even kruschev was not that crazy so the idea never went into effect.

The largest American weapon was the Mk 41 which had a yield of approx. 24 Mt.

ROFLMAO. The USA never made a nuke bigger than the 57 megaton tsar bomba, and feel free to prove me wrong.

Also, calling people a #ing moron isn't the way to go, and marks unproffesionalism especially because you're a mod.
