Nuclear bomb

[YANCHER7]

When I drop a 250kt nuclear bomb, he writes to me that the bomb failed on impact, I don't understand how to drop it, can someone please explain? I tried to find the information myself, but I couldn't.

its because your dropping it too low and it cant arm, you need to have a higher altitude for it to not break

Throw it from an altitude of no less than 1300m

The nuke needs 16 seconds to activate before it actually blows. It is meant to explode while still airborne, not when hitting the ground like conventional bombs.

If the nuke hit's the ground with more than 200g, it will get destroyed and doesnt detonate.

A 250kt nuke with 16sec fuse should be dropped from around 8km to detonate with a nice airburst. If the nuke hits the ground with and impact force of under 200g, it will still detonate after 16secs BUT the damage and blast will be less effective.

(It's still a nuke and will kill everything close by, but the AoE is smaller)

Why not fly ultra low to the ground and drop the bomb so it skids over the ground?

Low and slow maybe works.

Low and slow works. Speed must be about 250 kph or lower. 1.5 kt nuke has parachute, so, speed can be higher.

bc they fail based on impact force, worst thing to happen to this game
