No.
Sputnik was the "family name" for a series of satellites, and none of them dropped bombs on Earth. Not out of restraint, but because they didn't have any to drop.
But the fear was that once someone had the technology to put things into orbit, then it'd be a small step to actually drop things from orbit as well.
Sputnik 2 has been in space for sixty (60) days.
lunch the space race???
the name of the first satellite is Sputnik
They were unmanned, although Sputnik 2 carried a dog into space.
Before Sputnik, America was in a "battle" with Russia on space flight. America wanted to be the first in space, on the moon, and have the first satellite orbit the Earth. - When Sputnik (Russian Satellite) went into space, tension was created by which we had lost part of the Space Race. It put Russia ahead of America in the Space Race.
Sputnik proved that space exploration was possible.

The Soviet Space Program later replaced by the Russian Federal Space Agency have officially named 12 Sputnik craft (Sputnik 1 through Sputnik 10 which were launched by rockets into orbit as well as Sputnik 40 and Sputnik 41 which were released from the Mir space station). Outside of the Soviet Union, Sputnik 20 through Sputnik 25 may be referred to. However, the Soviet Union officially refers to these as Cosmos missions due to the launch failures.
