Tokyo clarified the estimated power of the North Korean charge

The power of a nuclear charge tested in the DPRK 3 September allegedly amounted to 160 kilotons, TASS a message from the Minister of Defense of Japan, Itsunori Onodera

We estimate the power could be about 160 kilotons,

said the head of the defense department today.

He referred to data from the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO), according to which, “the magnitude of the aftershocks at the time of the September test of 3, the test was 6,1”.

According to Onodera, this is "almost 10 times the power of the" Kid "- the atomic bomb dropped on 6 August 1945 of the year in Hiroshima."

According to the initial CTBTO estimates, the magnitude of the aftershocks from the explosion was estimated at 5,8. Based on this, the Japanese department concluded that the charge power was 70 kilotons. On Tuesday, the estimate changed - it was announced about the magnitude with the value 6,0. The Japanese Ministry of Defense also changed its findings and reported yesterday on the power of the charge in 120 kilotons.

Recall 3 September, the DPRK authorities announced the successful testing of the hydrogen charge, designed to equip intercontinental ballistic missiles.

A hydrogen bomb has no limits of its power, and if ON accumulates a sufficient amount of lithium-6 deuteride and plutonium with uranium ... it’s even scary to think ... a thermonuclear charge capable of blowing all who live there from the Korean Peninsula may well bungle too.

Classical war there then, in principle, will be impossible.

[Anarchist]

The Japanese were proud of their Kamikaze! And now they are afraid of Kamikaze from North Korea ...

[Dobi]

The Japanese were proud of their Kamikaze

Do you think that since kamikaze is always a kamikaze?

Well, yes ... a new concept is already being formed in Japan ...
Old samurai - they know, but they are silent that the "Kid" and "Fat Man" are gifts from the Americans.
Young samurai - they know that these bombs simply exploded ...
But for the very snotty samurai, they are convinced that Russia (not the USSR) dropped these bombs

[igorj 51]

a 100Mt thermonuclear charge capable of taking down all who live there from the Korean Peninsula may well be bungled.

And why the hell would he shoot such a heavy-duty bomb on his peninsula .. This is more of a gift for the United States .. However, the DPRK Ambassador to the United Nations openly said this:
https://ria.ru/world/20170905/1501794441.html

The DPRK ambassador to the UN said at the Disarmament Conference in Geneva that the latest test of the hydrogen bomb in the country is a “gift box sent exclusively to the United States,” Reuters reported.
"The latest self-defense measures taken in the DPRK are a gift set exclusively addressed to the United States. The United States will receive more gifts from my country as long as they rely on reckless provocations and futile attempts to put pressure on the DPRK," said Han The Song.

Well, the charge still needs to be delivered to its destination. Therefore, it has size limitations, Kuzkina’s mother didn’t get into the bear’s bomb, she had to be chemical. Easier with a nuclear torpedo, but they do not have a suitable carrier. If only to undermine the device, in the form of a sea container, causing an artificial tsunami. Academician Vostretsov spoke of such an option. Even our superbomb used secret technology to people inaccessible. Therefore, if it makes a charge in a megaton, at least for a torpedo of its standard torpedo tubes, then it will already be cool. Of course, they do not possess technologies like Status-B, but the selfless crew of suicide bombers will probably be able to send ...

Well - optional. In the sense - that Pukhlik has nothing to lose. If you have to use nuclear weapons - that means that's it. The personal hour of Pukhlik and most North Koreans struck. Therefore, a supermassive device can also be undermined in its territory, like a mine.

Plus, I'm more than sure that they are actively mining nuclear mines. For there are few paths to the north ... And the charges of the very first generations of any volume and weight are suitable for mining.

[34 region]

13.45. Donavi! It is logical! And if you look from the other side? Why fight the US servant? Maybe it’s better to immediately tear off the gentleman (USA) head? Is it logical?

[forty-eighth]

The main problem until recently was with delivery vehicles, and not with warheads

[Vadim237]

To create a hydrogen bomb, other elements are also needed, for example beryllium - there is no production of it in the DPRK.

[Anarchist]

10 times they say it exceeds the charge power dropped on Hiroshima! What will the Japanese do now? That's why they decided to conclude a peace treaty with Russia.
Thanks to Eun, you will also get us What contracts from the Japanese will fall. Or maybe terrible for the Americans, the sanctions will be lifted ...
And even worse, they will begin to make friends ...

Pasha, hello!
So for this they need Russians. Well, or Kamikaze revive.
Or maybe they’ll ask Eun ...

[bouncyhunter]

And hello to you! Go guess what far-reaching plans the descendants of the samurai have.

[Anarchist]

Descendants of the samurai? Do not flatter them Pash. They only had a nasty voice from the samurai. But there is an opportunity to become Ronin! It remains to betray Uncle Sam, the owner, so to speak!
Pash, where did Pain go?

I agree, as with other representatives of that region.

[cniza]

I hope we have competent specialists in this region - they will sort it out.

[bouncyhunter]

I do not doubt that .

[cniza]

We will see.

[bouncyhunter]

Let them betray, especially since in relation to the occupier it is difficult to call it a betrayal.
I don’t know where Vlad disappeared, I’m worried myself - since last week, I haven’t responded to soap.

[igorj 51]

Or even worse: they will drive mattresses from Japan with pissed rags ...

But this is extremely unlikely ..

[34 region]

13.20. Pasha! How? As soon as the Japanese politician blunders, then there will be an arrest of accounts. Suppose the government of Japan decided to send Amerts. Well then, immediately block all Japanese accounts. DPRK has a lot of accounts abroad?

[bouncyhunter]

Yes, I understand that this is from the field of unscientific fiction, but is it possible to dream?

DPRK has huge ties with the same Japan.
North Korea’s communication with Japanese business is an order of magnitude (i.e., ten times) superior to South Korean-Japanese contacts.
In the news, you are unlikely to find out about this ...
It is the Japanese who are the main suppliers of de facto to North Korea in an embargo.
They somehow managed to agree among themselves.

That's what the life-giving bomb does .. And then there are some Yuna scolding ... :))))

[Finches]

I can understand the children of the rising sun - they have been allergic to weapons-grade plutonium since 1945, but the United States hasn’t, by shaking their pin, they openly put Tokyo under Un ... and boor with the fact that a certain number of Japanese can go to eternal country hunting, the main thing is to have a reason to drop your bomb on Pyongyang ...

[Herculesic]

This means that the Japanese essentially confirmed the fact of the presence and testing of thermonuclear weapons among the Seaero-Koreans! It’s just that I have been following events for a long time, and more than I’m sure that someone clearly helps the Seaerokoreans to promote their nuclear missile programs, because they can do everything very quickly and quite effectively. This country is not capable of such literally effortlessly pulling such programs with their poor budget. Maybe they didn’t create a bomb, but received it from an "uncle", and is it possible that this "good-natured person" wants to "destroy" North Korea? Are you obviously using the blind.

[34 region]

13.29. Herculesych! If they use it in the dark, it is so that Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Ukraine are not at hand!

[Hadji Murat]

who are you hinting at? or are you poking us with the Chinese?

[Evil 55]

This Eun recalled that the Japans would not forget their friends from the American continent .. and on August 6, 1945 .. so to speak, he renewed the memory of generations for them ..

[bald]

Now think, something so small. They argue. We have all the data, to the penny, as in America. And you don’t have to rattle your ass, dusting, interested in information. which interests VO and its subscribers. I’ll say more, users of VO are much more aware of you. And, you, it just turns out, for imaging, it’s obvious.

[Sergey-8848]

The Japanese should know about nuclear weapons like no one else (and not forget about friends, partners and allies at all times who have experienced nuclear weapons in them).

[Hadji Murat]

a dozen kilotons less, more, no difference whatsoever)))
