"Ivy Mike" was detonated November 1, 1952.

Mike was not dropped, at 80 tons not counting the Hydrogen Liquefaction Plant used to keep it cool, it was much to heavy for any aircraft to carry.

The first one actually dropped was probably in the 1956 test series 4 years later. I don't immediately recall the codename.

What else can I help you with?
