America's Atomic Bomb Tests: Proliferation - Volume 14!
•Series Title: America's Atomic Bomb Tests
•Name: Proliferation
•Volume 14
•1998 Atwood Keeney Productions, Inc.
•Format: VHS Video
•Running Time: 55 Minutes
•Includes: Cardboard Slipcase
•Condition: New in Factory Sealed Plastic
Despite its role ending World War II, little was actually known about the true power of a nuclear weapon. Scientists and military planners needed precise data. How big was the blast ring? How powerful was the shock wave? How big of a blast could an aircraft carrier sustain? What altitude of detonation gave the most devastating blast?
The only way to find answers was to detonate bombs, and these tapes chronicle the results. All-in-all, they represent the fundamental knowledge America gained about the effects of nuclear bombs.
PROLIFERATION: See Bobby Kennedy watch the tests of the Army's Davy Crockett tube-launched nuke in Ivy Flats. Then see the slow-motion ground eruption from a 104KT blast during Operation Sedan. This is followed by the first-ever public disclosure of the Navy's underwater demolition unit in SADM - Special Atomic Demolition Munition. Finally, the odd but interesting program on the Vela Uniform participation in Operation Nougat and Gnome.
