The types of nuclear explosions |
▪Air burst ▪High altitude burst ▪Surface burst ▪Underwater burst ▪Underground burst |
|
Air burst of nuclear explosions |
•Fire ball does not touch the earth •Maximize blast and thermal effect over large area |
|
High altitude burst |
•Point of detonation is above 100,000 ft •Produces air blast, thermal radiation, EMP, initial nuclear radiation, and atmospheric ionization |
|
Surface burst |
•The fireball touches the surface •Air blast, thermal radiation, EMP |
|
Underwater burst |
•Practically all thermal radiation absorbed •Large base serge is formed |
|
Underground burst |
Produce a severe earth shock, especially near point of detonation |
|
The effects of nuclear explosions |
Air blast, Thermal radiation, Nuclear radiation, Electromegnetic Pulse(EMP), Fallout |
