No. While F3 tornadoes can be deadly they are not the deadliest. F5 tornadoes are the most destructive and generally the deadliest. The highest death toll from an F3 tornado in the U.S. since 1950 was 25, compared with nine F4 and F5 tornadoes with death tolls upwards of 50 of which three (all F5 or EF5) killed more than 100 apiece.
