Tsar-bomb AN602

thingiverse

The massive AN602 hydrogen bomb earned a terrifying nickname - Tsar Bomba - and stood as the world's most potent nuclear warhead after its detonation on October 30, 1961. This enormous explosion holds the record for being humanity's largest man-made eruption in history, outshining all previous records set by the atomic age's mightiest bombs. The name "Tsar-bomb" translates into Kuzma's mother from Russian and was cleverly coined to mock Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev's bold statement during a United Nations meeting where he pledged to unveil this devastating marvel. In 1960, the AN602 became one of humanity's greatest fears due to its unfathomable explosive force estimated at an astonishing 50 megaton TNT (210 PJ). Despite being only built once by the Soviet Union and subsequently set off in remote areas like Novaya Zemlya and Sukhoy Nos., this bomb's sheer power sends chills down human spines.
