there was a list of 4 target cities in Japan selected for atomic bombing. these were (in alphabetical order):
had japan not surrendered after the 3 planned atomic bombs of august more cities would have been added to this list as needed. considering the fact that the US had plans and production capacity to drop 23 atomic bombs on japan before the end of 1945, it is possible that once the invasion began in october future target selection might have been handed over entirely to the field commanders on tinnian according to the needs of combat.
To date, only two atomic bombs have been dropped. The locations were the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
A hydrogen bomb was tested in the 1950s but there have never been any dropped in aggression. In fact no nuclear bombs have been used in action since the atomic bombs were dropped on the Japanese in World War 2.
No. US dropped a couple of Atomic Bombs on Japan that's about it so far
The only atomic bombs dropped on any nation during a military conflict were the two atomic bombs dropped on August 9 and 6 in 1945. There have been test bombs dropped by Russia and the United States but not on people or cities. Therefore the answer to your question is that there have been no bombs dropped after the space race or since World War 2. The reason is obvious: It causes immense devastation and deaths instantly and for many decades afterward. No nation truly wants to use an atomic bomb. The Atomic Race is basically over and thousands of atomic bombs have been dismantled in the USA and world wide. There are still nuclear missiles around but they are meant for defense against nations who use them as offense against another nation (North Korea is a current treat of this.)
The two bombs dropped on Japan were released at a little higher than 30,000 feet and exploded at about 1500 feet. You can calculate from there. Bombs dropped for test purposes have been released and exploded at different altitudes.
No Atomic bombs have even been dropped ON the US.

A nuclear bomb has never been dropped. It was an atomic bomb that was dropped on the Japanese cities Hiroshima ans Nagasaki. An atomic bomb is a nuclear weapon. Nuclear bombs have much more impact than atomic bombs, and could potentially end the World if a nuclear war was started.
