Nuclear devices


All nuclear devices are designed to cause absolute destruction but still have their differences. The Atomic bomb type is the original nuclear bomb. The majority of the energy output comes from a runaway nuclear fission reaction. Even this bomb has its different types, pure fission and Gun-type. The other main type of nuclear device is the thermonuclear bomb or commonly known as the hydrogen bomb. This type combines nuclei of atoms instead of splitting them to start the chain reaction that causes the explosion. But this bomb isn’t one for accuracy. This would be good for leveling a city or a rather large target.
