For plutonium bomb, the only possible way is implosion. Yield is about 15-20kT, non-fusion bomb

2-3 kg weapons grade plutonium is needed and 25-30kg 99% enriched uranium is needed for a warhead. In case of reactor grade plutonium, we need 4kg of plutonium per bomb. You must be joking to say 6-12 kg plutonium is needed per bomb. The Nagasaki bomb, which was the first ever plutonium bomb...

Here are some videos to debunk the myths of blast effects : US soldiers exposed to blast effects but survive - Blast of 2kT tactical nuke at 3km above soldiers heads but soldiers live happily for over 80 years before dying recently -

Artillery shells were also made nuclear by USA. It may not cause a serious damage but even 1kT will cause larger damage than other conventional warheads of same size. A circle with radius of 100 metres will be hit very hard and almost every equipment within it will be wiped out and the damage to...

The warhead also includes several items for packaging which adds weight. I don't think the weight can be further reduced to that extent.

First, nuclear weapons are easy to make and are much less complicated than making a computer. Countries like syria and Iran did try to make them several times but western countries bombed or cyber attacked them. It is not complicated and once even a single testing is successfully done, it can...

It won't do any such things. This is an assumption that nuke will burn entire cities and the soot released will block sunlight. Reality is that most of the fire directly in contact with atmosphere is doused by the shockwave. Some fires in the internal side of the structures can't be doused...

Sigh! Even Iran has nuclear bombs. Nuclear bombs are 1940s technology. Precisely, atom bomb is 1945 technology and thermonuclear bomb is 1950 technology. It is plainly stupid to assume India can't make them or even countries like Pakistan or Iran. Nuclear bombs are point sources of energy. It...
