Nuke torpedo being used as CBG destroyer..

You still are not getting it in your head.. the design that was tested can easily be extended to 200KN with just adding the more gas adding another stage will take it to megaton levels Read the post again.. it is impossible to test a megaton weapon with testing range being 6km away from...

Pokhran-II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Nuclear bombs and detonations[edit] Five nuclear devices were detonated during Operation Shakti.[13] They were:[12] Shakti I – A thermonuclear device yielding 45 kt, but designed for up to 200 kt. Shakti II – A plutonium implosion design yielding...

Significantly lower is different from no expected detonation.. Further none of the sources claimed are reputable and at best estimates. The real results and designed objectives of the test have till now not been revealed. The explosion and aftermath have successfully confirmed capability of...

You are still missing the point.. Russia can claim it has 100 Megaton bomb and can back it up if needed... (Meaning design is verified even if a lower power test was carried out ) Hence it is not necessary to carry out a multi mega ton test .. only the design is tested.. If you dont...

FYI Czar Bomb was a 50 Megaton with a capability of 100 megaton .. Essentially design matters .. not the explosive weight (for testing) Tsar Bomba - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The logic employed is constraints vs need.. The constraints of the testing site we're villages barley 5-6Km from the actual explosion... hence the power was limited.. Further Engineers look for boundaries of a system.. or how the said system behaves.. so essentially for a bomb say the Trigger...

From an Engineering perspective its not a big deal.... and yes 2 and 3 are redundant.... Any logical person will conclude the capability.. Dependability will increase over time... You should ask your planners if they are worried or not!
