World's most powerful and devastating bombs..!! Top 5 list here..!

POWERFUL ATOMIC BOMBS: Russia's bombay bomb tops the list of most powerful bombs.

POWERFUL ATOMIC BOMBS:
The development and proliferation of powerful bombs is a hallmark of modern warfare. The devastating impact of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World war II and the ongoing arms race between major nations have seen the world develop increasingly powerful explosives. Nuclear weapons are considered to be the most important of them. In the event of a Third World war, it is believed that nuclear weapons, especially radioactive nuclear weapons, will wreak havoc on the human race. In this context, the 5 most powerful, dangerous, and devastating bombs in the world are listed below.
5. FOAB (Father of All Bombs):
Russia's FOAB (Father Of All Bombs) is a thermobaric bomb. It is the most powerful non-nuclear explosive ever developed. Releases energy equivalent to 44 tons of trinitrotoluene (TNT - a type of explosive). Because of this, the FOAB bomb has the same effects as a small nuclear weapon. It was developed to destroy tunnel complexes and bunkers. It is said to have a large impact for a radius of 300 meters.

4. MOAB (Massive Ordnance air Blast):
America's MOAB (Massive Ordnance air Blast) is a powerful non-nuclear bomb developed by the United States. It gained global attention when it was deployed in afghanistan in april 2017. The MOAB is the most powerful conventional bomb ever used in combat. It releases energy equivalent to 11 tons of trinitrotoluene when detonated. For a 1 mile radius, it will have a huge impact.
03. R-36M2 Voevoda (Satan)
The R-36M2 Voevoda, known as "Satan" in the West, is a Russian-developed intercontinental ballistic missile. It is a multiple independently targetable reusable (MIRV) weapon. Each MIRV can carry up to 10 nuclear warheads. The missile has a range of 10,000 kilometers. The R-36M2 Voevoda is one of the most powerful weapons in Russia's nuclear arsenal, capable of hitting multiple targets simultaneously with precision.
02. B83 Nuclear Bomb:
The B83 is a thermonuclear bomb in the US nuclear arsenal. One of the world's most powerful bombs is still in use today. It is upgradeable from 300 tonnes of trinitrotoluene equivalent to 1.2 megatons equivalents. The shock wave from a B83 blast can completely damage solid concrete buildings within a radius of 2.5 km and cause 100% casualties. Structurally weak houses and shops within a radius of 5 km will be razed to the ground. Windows of buildings up to 12 kilometers away may shatter. The radiation emitted by this bomb increases the number of deaths and injuries.

01. Tsar Bomba:
The Tsar Bomba, also known as the RDS-220, was one of the most powerful nuclear bombs ever developed. This catastrophic device, developed by the Soviet Union, was tested on october 30, 1961, on Novaya Zemlya Island in the Arctic Ocean. With a yield equivalent to 50 megatons of trinitrotoluene, this bomb is the most powerful nuclear bomb ever detonated. During the test, it produced a flame visible 1000 km away and a plume of smoke reaching 210,000 feet. 55 kg from the blast area will be partially leveled. Buildings up to 160 km away may be damaged. It is predicted that the heat from the blast could cause third-degree burns to people even 100 km away.
