What is the maximum explosive equivalent of a hydrogen bomb?
Theoretically, the equivalent of the largest hydrogen bomb explosion can be infinite (as long as the technology is excellent and the materials are sufficient).

1. 1954, the United States exploded a 25-million-ton hydrogen bomb on Bikini Island in Basor.

2. Theoretically, after the super hydrogen bomb explodes in Xindi Island, the killing radius is about 1000 km. A problem that the developer didn't consider in advance is in front of us: there is no place to test and explode! Later, after repeated argumentation, it was decided to adopt a compromise: the charge was halved, that is, 50 million tons equivalent. ?

3. Historically (during the Cold War), Khrushchev's team produced the most powerful hydrogen bomb to date-65438+1100 million tons of TNT equivalent hydrogen bomb. The name of this bomb is as terrible as its power-it is called "Khrushchev bomb". According to this theory, the explosion center completely destroyed the super firecrackers with a radius of several hundred kilometers, a killing radius of 1000 kilometers and a comprehensive damage effect radius of more than 4,000 kilometers.
