Ivy Mike

"'Peace won't come to us, doctor. WE MUST GO TOWARDS PEACE'"

Background
Ivy Mike is a thermonuclear (hydrogen) device with the second-best blast radius (250 blocks).

It was detonated at 7:15 p.m. on October 31 (world time). It produced 10.4 megatons, a force roughly 650 times greater than that of the weapons developed by Robert Oppenheimer during World War II. Along with the Ivy King nuclear test (0.5 Mt), it was part of Operation Ivy.

As it is a thermonuclear device, it is a two-stage device consisting of the fission and fusion stage. The device will still operate without the fusion stage, however, it will effectively just be a more expensive Fat Man without it.

Bomb Itself

 * 1 Steel Sphere


 * 4 Big Aluminium Shells


 * 1 Aluminium Cap


 * 3 Military Grade Circuit Board (Tier 4)


 * 18 Gold Wires


 * 12 Light gray dye

Fission Components

 * 4 Bundles of Implosion Propelllant
 * 8 (32) Explosive Lenses
 * 2 (64) TNT
 * 3 (96) Bars of Semtex
 * 2 (64) Steel Plates
 * 4 (128) Titanium Plates
 * 3 (96) Red Copper Wires

Fusion Components

 * Uranium Coated Deuterium Tank
 * 24 U238 Nuggets

 * Deuterium Tank
 * 12 Iron Plates
 * 16 Steel Plates
 * 10 Deuterium Cells
 * Deuterium Cooling Unit

Use
The Ivy Mike device can operate without the fusion stage but that would defeat the purpose of building a thermonuclear capable device. With just the fission stage, it will have only the same yield of a Fat Man. The fusion stage is not particularly expensive and it greatly increases yield. The fusion stage cannot work without a fission stage to start.

Fission Stage

 * 4 Bundles of Implosion Propellant


 * 1 Plutonium Core (modern generation, same type as Fat Man)

Fusion Stage

 * 1 Uranium Coated Deuterium Tank


 * 1 Deuterium Tank


 * 1 Deuterium Cooling Unit



Trivia

 * It is named, modeled, and designed after the world's first successful full-scale thermonuclear device ever tested.
 * It was tested on November 1, 1962.
 * Its real-life yield was a massive ~10.4 megatons.
