Why was the first hydrogen bomb unusable?

The first test of a fusion (hydrogen) bomb required tons of equipment and supplies just to test several theories. There would be no way to package all of that into an air-deliverable bomb, or mashed up into the nosecone of a missile. Once the theories were proven, or failed, improvements were made and miniaturization, that then allowed the hydrogen bomb to be deliverable.


How powerful is a hydrogen bomb?

A hydrogen bomb is approximately 4.87 times more powerful than an atom bomb. What makes these bombs so powerful is that hydrogen is an extremely inflammable and explosive gas. When the bomb is released, the special coating used on its shell captures tons of friction, which heats the bomb. Then the detonator button is pressed, and the bomb blows up. Also, if the bomb comes in contact with the ground, before the button is pressed, then the heat absorbed by the bomb will set fire to the hydrogen inside and blow the bomb up.
