The Us Used the atomic bomb as a last resort to pressure emperor Hirohito into unconditional surrender

If this did not result into unconditional surrender President Truman would have had to resort to operation Olympic which lead to the total invasion of Japan, meaning an extremely high allied fatality rate ....

it was seen as more economical to bomb Japan rather than loose countless allied lives.

Olympic was already planned and would have begun in late August, the bomb was an option that simply arrived in time to avoid it. If the Japanese had not surrendered when they did, US, USSR, and Japanese soldiers would have been fighting on the world's first (and only) live Atomic Battlefield throughout Olympic!

The US had facilities and plans for dropping as many as 23 a-bombs on Japan in 1945 if they refused to surrender and many times that in 1946. Luckily they surrendered after just 2.
