You can't fire-bomb anything with only one bomber. The Operation Meetinghouse raid on Tokyo required 334 B-29 bombers, 279 of which were able to drop bombs. It required an elaborately coordinated dropping pattern. Only one very special B-29 was used on Hiroshima ("Enola Gay") and one similarly special one on Nagasaki ("Bockscar"). The bombers were specially modified to carry the nuclear bombs. The pilots had undergone specific training to make the drop. It happened.
The link leads to unmitigated bullshit by someone who knows absolutely nothing about nuclear weapons or their effects. If his story is correct, there could be no such thing as trinitite, a fused mineral made by the detonation of the Trinity device. I have samples of the mineral. My father saw the ruins of Nagasaki in November of 1945 and described them to me. I worked for a government contractor that made nuclear delivery systems...on strategic defense against nuclear weapons. I had a Classified Nuclear Weapon Design Information (CNWDI) clearance.
Here's the problem, anons. You allow the world to peek in on this page and laugh their heads off at your deliberate ignorance. All you need to do is read "The Effects of Nuclear Weapons" by Glasstone, and you would be up to speed. But no, you decide to go the way of the Know-Nothing...and prove you know nothing. I am wondering if the real anons are not on this page...
