This is Vladimir Putin’s Czar’s bomb: The most destructive nuclear weapon in the world with a power 3,100 times greater than that of Hiroshima

In the midst of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, many rumors arose of the possible use of the worst arsenals that the world powers have up their sleeves. In this case, nuclear bombs. And the latent threat of the great power continues to generate fear in the world population.

One of the alarms is set off by Russia, after on February 27 the president of that nation, Vladimir Putingave the order to activate its nuclear arsenal.

And it is that the most devastating nuclear weapon ever built, according to a BBC essay, was a Russian idea and a true weapons beast: the Czar’s bomb.

This device is about a hydrogen bomb that was developed during the validity of the former Soviet Union, and was tested in 1961 on the Russian archipelago of Nova Zembla.

That’s how powerful Vladimir Putin’s Czar bomb is

In the test carried out by the Soviet country, during the Cold War period, it was concluded that the Czar’s bomb was 3,100 times more powerful than the Little Boy, detonated over Hiroshima; and 2,300 times more powerful than the Fat Man (fat man) launched on Nagasaki.

Its detonation had a power of 211,000 megatons, and the beam of light that the explosion radiated could be seen 1,000 kilometers away.

The fire mushroom generated by the activation of this bomb reached a height of 64 kilometers, and if there had been people around the test site, they would have suffered third-degree burns, even being 100 kilometers away from the epicenter of the explosion.

With the background of the Tsar’s bomb, it is enough for many to expect the worst of Russian nuclear weapons, such as having one or more twin bombs of the one tested in 1961, or even something more powerful.

And indeed, it is to be expected, since in 2015 a replica of the Czar’s bomb was exhibited during the 70th anniversary of the Russian Nuclear Industry.
