The last atomic bomb used in combat was on August 9, 1945.

Many more were dropped from airplanes or otherwise detonated in test shots.

The regular bombings of Tokyo killed just as many people as the atomic bombs. The use of the atomic bombs were to motivate the Japanese populous to demand the Emperor and the Military stop the war. The Japanese did realize the US had weapon superiority and could wipe out Japan. The atom bomb dropping took less people to deliver the bomb and no loss of life to deliver the bomb. The conventional bombings took many more planes and airmen with some loss of planes and lives.

Was the atomic bomb nessary?

If necessary, means ending the War (WWII), then yes. There are "reports" that the Japanese were going to surrender, before the bombs were dropped, but the Japanese had been known to use delaying tactics to their advantage. In any case, the dropping of the bombs, ended the war and in doing so, saved countless additional lives. If the Japanese had surrendered when requested, the bombs would not have been dropped.
