Worlds Top 5 Nuclear Power Comparison 2015.

"Nukes" or nuclear weapons is the name given to all radiological, fusion and fission weapons. War with these weapons is called atomic war.

Technically speaking, atomic war would be any war in which nuclear weapons are used, ranging from a single, small weapon (like a 'bunker buster' or a 1kt Soviet 'suitcase bomb'), a few medium weapons like the 'city killer' ones dropped by the United States on Japan in World War II, or a ad-hock terrorist bomb right the way up to a full-blown assault between nuclear powers using ICBMS and bombs with multi-megaton yearling atomic arms (including striking those opponents without nukes with their nukes).

BusterJangle-Charlie

The mushroom cloud from Buster-Jangle Charlie, yield 14 kilotons (at 143 m • kt −1⁄3), during the initial phase of stem formation. The toroidal fireball is visible at the top, a condensation cloud is forming in the middle due to intense updrafts of moist air, and the forming partial stem can be seen below. The cloud exhibits the reddish-brown hue of nitrogen oxides.
