Cont.
It has a blast radius in game of 127m. Since this is supposedly an antimatter shell, I extrapolated, calculating it as a nuclear explosion and blast radius as the fireball size (since the blast wave in this game doesn't seem to do much to the giant robots, 500 damage for a regular nuke). This places it in the area of 50 kilotons (which would have a fireball radius of about 130m). That's 3-4 times the energy of the Hiroshima Little Boy bomb, not terribly powerful by modern standards, but still a nuke is a nuke (just as a side calculation, the strategic nuke is around 500kt-1MT). That makes the antimatter payload it carries a little over 1 gram (1 gram of matter converted to pure energy yields about 22 kilotons, and since in annihilation consumes the antimatter and regular matter, it'll yield 2 grams consumed or 44 kilotons). |
