During the Vietnam War, particularly during the "Christmas Bombing" campaign known as Operation Linebacker II in December 1972, an estimated 20,000 tons of bombs were dropped on Hanoi. This intense bombing campaign included the use of B-52 bombers and targeted military and infrastructure sites. The total number of individual bombs is difficult to quantify precisely, but the scale of the bombing was significant and had a devastating impact on the city and its population.
There were different varieties of bombs that fell on London, These were: * H.E. (High Explosive) bombs * Incendiary Bombs, also called Fire Bombs as they started fires. * Oil Bombs 1 in every 10 bombs that fell was a 'dud', which meant it did not blow up on impact. Some bombs had a delayed fuse, which meant they could explode at any time, before or after they had hit the ground. This meant that it was almost impossible to tell the difference between the bombs that were dropped. Civillians were evacuated from the area until the bombs had been deactivated. Bombs are still being found today. In 1944, two new weapons began to be used. They were the V1 and V2 bombs. A V1 bomb, offten called a doodlebug, had no pilot and made a droning sound when it flew. When the noise stopped people knew they had 15 seconds to get out before the explosion happened. As they had no pilot, may V1's fell into the sea or missed their targets and fell into the countryside. Almost 9,500 v1s were sent off towards london, but less than 2,500 actually got there. many were destrooyed by aircraft, guns and barrage baloons, and the rest just missed their targets. The first doodlebug to ever explode was in Swanscome in Kent. A V2 bomb was a much larger version of a V1 bomb. they flew without any noise, which meant no warning of where or when they were going to fall. They also flew too high to be shot down by aircraft or ground guns. The explosion was much larger with these bombs, but not so many were fired.
The number of bombs that one plane can carry depends on the plane and the size of the bombs. During WW2, the B-29 Superfortress could carry 20,000 pounds of bombs or approximately 5 to 15 bombs.

Slightly less than 1000 fission bombs, no fusion bombs.

There are many hotels in Hanoi, Vietnam. Some of the more popular ones are InterContinental Hanoi Westlake Hotel, Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi Hotel, Emerald Hotel Hanoi and Hanoi Hibiscus Hotel.
The Germans usually dropped 250 kg bombs on raids over cities.
Counting the number of bombs dropped wasn't practical or important. Bear in mind that often bombs fell in clusters and weren't dropped at neat intervals. If an area was hit by a cluster of bombs it usually wasn't possible to do more than estimate the overall tonnage, if that.

Could have been any number of USAF or USN bomber airmen over North Vietnam. The US dropped more than 3 times as many bombs in Vietnam than they did in all of WWII!
Nine times during the "Air Battle for England" bombs fell within Bath's boundaries
