America's Atomic Bomb Tests - The Collection (3DVDs, 9 films)

Movies : Documentary : DVD Rip : English

After World War II, American scientists and military

officials conducted numerous atomic tests in the

American Shouthwest; now this incredible documentary

footage (intended for internal use and not declassified

until 1997) comes to light in three essential DVDs.

DVD1: Operation Tumbler Snapper

Despite its effectiveness in the war, little was actually known about an A-bomb's power.

In this series of tests in the Nevada desert, eight bombs were detonated, and the

effects of the blasts were studied, using obsolete WWII aircraft, trees, jeeps, building

materials, military equipment, and small shacks as subjects.

DVD2: Operation Hardtack

- Operation Hardtack - Part 1 - Basic Effects-Structures and Materiel

- Operation Hardtack - Part 2 - High Altitude Tests

- Operation Hardtack - Part 3 - Underwater Tests

- Operation Hardtack - Part 4 - Sub-Kiloton Effects

Seventy-four nuclear bombs were detonated as part of the Operation Hardtack series

of nuclear tests in one of the operations ever to be conducted at both the Pacific

Proving Grounds and the Nevada Test Site.

DVD3: At Ground Zero

- Operation Upshot: Knothole

- Operation Cue: An Everyday Test

- Operation Doorstop: Test Results

- Let's Face It: Test Assessment

This full photographic coverage of the only tests ever conducted of the effects of a

nuclear bomb on a typical American community contains the first-ever compilation of

the full-lenght official documentaries that chronicle the effects of these tests as the full

fury of a nuclear bomb is demonstrated on the typical American home.

NOTE BY UPLOADER;

there's dozens of documentaries out there

but most are made as an afterthought

these were made as it was happening, US military internal films

most of the stuff is filled with VERY technical details of the nature of the nuclear blast and it's various characteristics

practically hardcore porn for engineers
