Topic	How big was the MOAB compared to the Nuke we dropped on Japan?
Fart_Tzar 04/13/17 5:39:54 PM #16:	ChromaticAngel posted... The Tsar Bomba had a 100 Megaton Payload when it was originally architected but they dialed it back down to about 50 megatons because the plane they were going to drop it out of wouldn't be able to get out of the blast radius of the 100 megaton version. By the way, you only need a few kilotons to level a whole city. I think the real question is, yeah you can "level" (not really, you still have standing structures with those bombs) a city with current bombs, but what about those bombs you see in anime that 100% vaporize everything in a perfect sphere around the bomb. What kind of energy would be required for that kind of absolute destruction?
