Could an EF2 Tornado Lift Up Atomic Betty's Ship?

No because a ship would be deep down into a thing and a tornado would not be able to lift it up. However, considering its size a tornado of EF4 or EF5 intensity might be able to lift it if it were exposed on the surface, but probably couldn't carry or throw it very far.


Can a tornado pick up a car 16 miles away?

No. The widest tornado damage path on record (how far out damaging winds extended) was 2.5 miles and much of that was within the funnel. So you are highly unlikely to experience extreme winds from a tornado more than half a mile a way.
