What would be the maximum velocity an airplane would need to guarantee a 100% survival rate from a Tsar Bomba detonation?

[Anonymous No.8270231]

2700 dollars per hour

That depends.

[Anonymous No.8270294]

Dependent upon time of release, time of detonation, ect.

I think most importantly one would have to take into account the composition of the atmosphere at the detonation site as ensure how fast the shockwave propagates following detonation.

I mean, the plane that dropped it survived

IIRC they used a parachute to slow down the bomb and buy more time for the pilot.

>>8270222
How close is it to the detonation?

[Anonymous No.8271412]

>>8270222
99.something% the speed of light, but you probably wanted to know the _minimum_ velocity required.

>>8271404

Even then they nearly lost control of the bomber after it went off

[Anonymous No.8271443]

>>8271412
Pretty sure it is warp speed 9.995

[Anonymous No.8271454]

stupid question, but what about initial rediation won't it affect the pilots too?

[Anonymous No.8271503]

>>8271454
They use a blue filter on their glasses so they are not affected by rediation.

[Anonymous No.8272543]

>>8270222
Depends, how hard are you going to chuck it?

>>8271454
instrument panels are blacked out and even then it would still be blindingly bright, so the air force developed goggles that became opaque from a flash of light

lightspeed

you mean minimum

Your question is so ill-posed on so many levels, it hurts my brain that you have gotten so many "serious" answers. But then again, what do you expect on a Venesian rat-fucking image board?

Just kill yourself.
