If used on a city like Paris. The yellow circle is the fireball. Red total destruction.
And the radiation fallout?

Good post.
I wonder why India keeps only small 20kt nuclear weapons. Even India's entire arsenal could not destroy one single Chinese province.
The yield of the PNE has also remained controversial. Although occasional press reports have given ranges all the way up to 20 kt, and as low as 2 kt, the official yield was set early on at 12 kt (post Operation Shakti claims have raised it to 13 kt). Outside seismic data, and analysis of the crater features indicates a lower figure. Analysts usually estimate the yield at 4 to 6 kt using conventional seismic magnitude-to-yield conversion formulas. In recent years both Homi Sethna and P.K. Iyengar have conceded that the official yield is an exaggeration. Iyengar has variously stated that the yield was actually 8-10 kt, that the device was designed to yield 10 kt, and that the yield was 8 kt 'exactly as predicted'. Careful analysis of hard rock cratering effects establishes a tight bound around 8 kt for the yield however.

US military's budget has been released, and its whopping amount of $725 BILLION!!!!!
talk about defence needs..

do they still have tsar bomb??
i thought it was destroyed by themselves.
Yeah, so China is 294 times more powerful than India.The estimation of nuclear destructive power:
1. Russia ~ 1,273 megaton
2. USA ~ 570 megaton
3. China ~ 294 megaton
4. France ~ 55 megaton
5. UK ~ 16 megaton
6. Israel ~ 1.5 - 4 megaton
7. India ~ 0.8 - 1 megaton
8. Pakistan ~ 0.6 - 1 megaton
9. North Korea ~ Unknown

That's not true. I'm sure China would be willing to absorb a 20 kt wildly inaccurate Indian nuclear attack on Tibet somewhere if we can completely destroy an adversary blocking our way to superpower dominance in Asia in return!No Govt is foolish enough to risk even to take a single nuke on its soil however small.
Excellent analysis. Agni-II+ is the first missile intended to actually work. The Agni-II never actually worked. And all those Agni-III and Agni-V Indians talk about are preliminary scientific experiments, not deployable weapons.There are four caveats. Firstly, Agni II+ test failed, which shows Indian IRBM technology is still experimental. Secondly, assuming the Agni II+ is operational someday, China can use its ASAT to deprive an Indian missile of GPS guidance. Inertial guidance is more unreliable and the CEP will be much greater. Good luck trying to hit Beijing or Shanghai.
Never underestimate their stupidity. They will only understand fear when we bloody them a bit, maybe more than a bit.Finally, this discussion is entirely theoretical. There are "nearly 60 launch pads for medium-range nuclear ballistic missiles in Central China" to act as a deterrent. Attacking the world's fourth-oldest thermonuclear power with a nuclear weapon is beyond insanity.
