Russian vacuum bomb, a banned weapon comparable to the power of a nuclear bomb?

  Principles, Historical Performance, and Specifications of the Vacuum Bomb Introduction Vacuum bombs, also known as thermobaric bombs, are highly destructive explosive devices that use oxygen from the surrounding air to generate a high-pressure blast. This article aims to explore the principles, historical performance, and specifications of vacuum bombs. What is a Vacuum Bomb? A vacuum bomb is an explosive weapon that creates a high-temperature and high-pressure blast by igniting a fuel-air mixture in an enclosed space. The ignition of the fuel-air mixture causes a rapid expansion of the gases, which creates a powerful shockwave. The vacuum bomb is different from a conventional bomb as it uses a mixture of fuel and air, instead of just fuel, to create the explosion. The term "thermobaric" is used to describe these weapons because they rely on both thermal energy and pressure to inflict damage. How Does a Vacuum Bomb Work? A vacuum bomb works by creating a blast wave that is ...
