No. The first WW2 atomic bomb was rated in terms of Kilo-tons and was a fission explosion. The largest bombs developed during the Cold War was a hydrogen bomb using fussion and it was rated in the Mega-ton or equivalent to Million of tons of TNT. Of course, modern bombs have been designed with low kilo-ton power that can be used as a tactical weapon---meaning it is designed to destroy a local area and not an entire city. Actually, being a rocket scientist myself, Jason Knox, i believe that the most powerful atomic bomb is the current 254-U system that has a range of 200 miles radius and can obliterate the scene that was intended.
The US used atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 during World War II to bring a swift end to the war against Japan and avoid a prolonged and costly invasion of the Japanese mainland. The bombings were intended to show the devastating power of nuclear weapons and to force Japan to surrender unconditionally.
The atomic age was primarily caused by the development and use of nuclear weapons, starting with the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. The Manhattan Project, a research and development program during World War II, led to the creation of the first atomic bombs, marking the beginning of the atomic age.
J. Robert Oppenheimer was the scientific director of the Manhattan Project, the research and development project that produced the first nuclear weapons during World War II. He played a crucial role in overseeing the design and creation of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.
In 1939, J. Robert Oppenheimer was the first to realize that an atomic bomb could be made as a result of nuclear fission. Prior to this, there were several scientists around the world who knew they were on the verge of discovery. It wasn't until 1945 that the first experiment was conducted.
The goal of the Manhattan Project was to develop and build the first atomic bombs during World War II. This research and development effort led to the successful testing and deployment of nuclear weapons by the United States.
20 kilotons
Yes, atomic bombs are real. They are powerful nuclear weapons that release energy through nuclear fission reactions, causing devastating destruction. The first atomic bombs were developed and used during World War II in 1945.
No, at no time have the Japanese ever had atomic bombs!

In the United States.
The explosive power of the first test bombs were 20 kilotons.
To date, only two atomic bombs have been dropped. The locations were the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Yes because the American bomber aircraft dropped two atomic bombs in Japan but now the atomic bombs are called nuclear bombs, the first nuclear weapon was ever invented.
Germany and United States where working to make them work. United States got it first and used first on Japan over the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
