It's even got a fur cap. In Soviet Russia, bomba warms you.

تدفأة بدرجة حرارة أعلى من سطح الشمس 💀💀💀💀

[@robben896]

This one has better reference points and sense of scale than many american and european ones.

[@crucial0072]

That last shot is disturbingly beautiful.

[@feliscorax]

Fascinating, isn’t it?

[@borntoclimb7116]

Agree

[@abes.4040]

The X rays ignite the air before the actual explosion. That's the double flash at the beginning. Thats' how satellites can detect nuclear explosions.

[@Republic9323]

The output of X-Ray’s are what produce the fireball you see. As for the “double flash”, that is produced once the primary or incident shock front physically separates from the surface of the fireball.

[@Republic9323]

It’s called “breakaway”

[@depebehwuha3510]

какая уже разница в обнаружении со спутника если взрыв уже уничтожил мегаполис?!

[@slooob23]

​@@Republic9323 I assume gamma rays contribute but x-rays dominate fireball formation?

[@josephastier7421]

The Russian B-29 cracks me up every time. Not only did they steal the bomb, they stole the aircraft used to deliver it!

[@borntoclimb7116]

0:32 perfect with the music. 0:46 incredible.

[@pspboy7]

The cloud and vapor dissipation in this test was incredible!

[@RaptorGP]

Epic footage!

[@hugodesrosiers-plaisance3156]

Impressive footage

[@RRW359]

Is the plane just a rebranded B-29 copy?

[@kriztlumburt714]

It looks like they just had one (a b-29) and put red stars on it 🤷🏻

[@Ales.2000]

During WW2 there were a few emergency landings of B-29s on Soviet territory, the US demanded their planes to be returned, but Soviets refused to do so. Eventually they copied the construction of B-29 and created their "own" bomber called Tu-4 which was identical to B-29.

[@Ales.2000]

​@@kriztlumburt714This also happened if I know well. Shortly after WW2 there was a military parade in Moscow and certain American army representatives were invited. They were watching the parade and about three Tu-4 flew over the Red Square, so they thought these were the unreturned B-29, but some more appeared afterwards so they found out the Soviets copied their B-29s and made their own.

[@TJTurnage]

Is that the blast wave reaching the camera around 1:13 ?

[@imtoostonedtocomeupwithaus5976]

Shockwave yes

[@SuperpowerBroadcasting]

Spooky nukies

[@somnuswaltz5586]

The music is kinda too over the top and gay

[@lamantine_design]

Самолет красивый

[@keithallver2450]

Это Туполев Ту-4. Советская копия американского B-29

Only the Plane?
