Yield1 Mt

Continuous from 10 tonnes to 100 megatons. Every radius below scales as the cube root of this number.

Burst type

Ground

Wind (carries the fallout)

Speed24 km/h

Bearing090°

Drag the dial or the sliders. Bearing is the direction the wind blows toward.

Fission fraction50%

The share of yield from fission sets how much local fallout a surface burst produces. Only an effects parameter — no design information is modelled.

VisibilityClear · 20 km

Haze absorbs thermal radiation and shrinks the burn rings. It does nothing to the blast.

This tool models consequences only — blast, heat, radiation, cratering and fallout — from open, published effects data. It contains no weapon design, construction or targeting information.
