US_nuclear_weapons_yield-to-weight_comparison.svg‎ (SVG file, nominally 852 × 900 pixels, file size: 70 KB)

Logarithmic scatterplot comparing the yield (in kilotons) and weight (in kilograms) of all nuclear weapons developed by the United States, 1945-1993. Weapons variable yield and weight have been plotted at their highest yield and weight. Also indicated on the graph are a few characteristics of the weapons (Little Boy and Fat Man, the early H-bombs, small tactical weapons, and weapons in the enduring stockpile separated by missile warheads and air-dropped bombs).

Data itself retrieved from http://nuclearweaponarchive.org/Usa/Weapons/Allbombs.html. Processed first in Microsoft Excel and then re-plotted in Inkscape by User:Fastfission.

This vector image was created with Inkscape.
