I would have to say it wouldn't be a surprise at all

The Daisy Cutter Bomb.\n\nIt weighs 15000 pounds, and because its detonated just before it hits the ground, it leaves no crater, and has a devastating impact, vapourising any thing within a 900 feet radius.\n\nI would happily drop this bomb on any country that supported terrorism.\n\nThis is the bomb which i reckon vapourised Bin Ladin when he hid in the caves.\n\nThe same caves were a safe haven for these scu*mbags in the Russian conflict, but when the USA dropped this bomb nothing came out alive, in fact it was quoted in a local paper as vapourising the occupants of the caves, even though they well hidden very deep in the mountains.

I think the navy and Air Force would always have the upper hand, they have the nukes!

Yes, I would say for the US Vietnam was. For the world I would say Japan had it pretty rough when we droped two nukes on two huge citys.

Probably the B83 nuclear weapon which is about 1.2Mt.\n\nThe most powerful weapon the US has developed was the Mk-41 which is a 25Mt bomb, nearly 2000 times as large as the bomb dropped on Hiroshima.  The Mk-41 has been retired for some time.\n\nThe most powerful weapon system currently deployed would be the Ohio class submarines which can carry 24 Trident II SLBMs, each capable of delivering up to 3.4Mt.

June 2, 1994 - The International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.N. atomic watchdog, reported it could no longer verify the status of North Korea's nuclear program, prompting the United States to seek economic sanctions.

There are two basic types of atomic bomb. The gun type was used over Hiroshima and used U-235. The compression type is more common now and was used over Nagasaki and used Pu-239.

http://www.fas.org/nuke/guide/israel/nuke/\n\nThis is an estimate of the size of the nuclear program of Israel up to 2000; the text is in the Federation of  American Scientists site. The number in the graph shows something around 200 !\n\nMind you that the text cites that in the Yom Kipur war probably around 13-14 atomic bombs were build. Apparently, none of them were used, since the war was using only conventional weapons.\n\nWe all know that only two atomic bombs were used in history though, both of them in Japan by the american army.

Of course there is no ight or wrong answer to this question, but I don't think that evaluation is right. Particularly in this nuclear imbalanced world created by NNPT, a country like USA that holds atomic weapons can easily defeat another country that does not have nuclear weapons (though I can't think of any country militarily strong enough that USA won't attack without nuclear weapons yet has no nuclear weapon itself). The presence of nuclear weapons can also radically affect the course of war between two nuclear countries. For example, France is militarily weaker than USA but USA may well think twice before attacking France because just before falling a desparate government may well decide to fire off those warheads.

none, the 2 different bombs you are trying to get at are usually called atomic and hydrogen bombs\n\natomic (that was dropped over Japan 1946) is uncontrolled splitting (fission) of uranium whereas in the nuclear power reactors this is done slowly -- the reaction is controlled.\n\nhydrogen bomb was never tested over human population (only atoll Bikini) is a synthesis (fusion) of hydrogen into helium. This reaction produces the energy from the Sun and it is still in a research mode here on earth to get this reaction under control.\nIt would be much more effective source of energy than the nuclear one.

THE   UNITED   STATES  OF  AMERICA.  THANKS  TO  THE  BIGGEST  TERRORIST  EVER,  GEORGE   W.  BUSH.

1) the US wanted to get the Japanese back for the bombing of Pearl Harbor\n\n2) the US wanted to intimidate the Soviet Union \n(because there were tensions between the US and the former Soviet Union and the US wanted to show the Soviet Union that it had a new, deadly weapon which the Soviet Union didn't have)\n\n3) Truman justified the dropping of the bomb by stating Japan would not surrender without an invasion that'd cause enormous loss of both American and Japanese lives. At least, with Hiroshima and Nagasaki...no American lives were lost (*rolls eyes*)\n\n\nThe bombing of Hiroshima came first (August 6, 1945), the US dropped the bomb in hopes Japan surrenders.\nSince Japan didn't surrender, 3 days later (August 9, 1945) the US dropped another atomic bomb on Nagasaki. \nJapan got the point, surrendered, and World War 2 was over.

well, there were two parts of it.\nthe first, of course, was nuclear technology. at first, the USA was the only one that had atomic bombs. but during the 1940s, Stalin infiltrated FDR's staff and bought the technology. when Russia had atomic bombs, they threatened to use them on us.\nthe other half was what happened to Europe.  by the time the war was over, basically every country in Europe was broke and desolate. so the two countries left standing, USA and Russia. USA and England wanted to push democracy, Russia wanted to expand communism. this lead to pretty much a global fight on how to bring back Europe. when the two sides started fighting, nuclear bombs became trump card.

yes, when Reagan was the president. (means for making Biological weapons too) I think Russia supported Iran at the time.

The USA is trying real hard\n\nI hope they do not drop any more nuclear bombs
