Viral News / America exploded 18 thousand kg bomb and earthquake hit the sea, video went viral

America's relations with countries like China, Russia and Iran have been strained. In such a situation, America is constantly trying to strengthen itself militarily. Recently, the US Navy exploded for the testing of its new aircraft carrier, due to which an earthquake-like situation was created in the sea.

The US Navy has fired 40,000 pounds of explosives near one of its aircraft carriers to test its combat capabilities. Let us tell you that in the conditions of war, many times bombs fall near these ships. The US Navy wanted to see if their ships could withstand heavy bomb attacks in combat conditions.

The US Navy had detonated 40 thousand pounds i.e. 18,144 kg near this aircraft carrier. With this explosion, tremendous movement was felt in a large part of the sea and due to this explosion, the water jumped to a great height.

This explosion was so dangerous that due to this an earthquake of 3.9 magnitude was recorded. The US Navy wrote in a social media post in this matter that the purpose of these explosions is to shock test the design of new ships.

It was further written in this post that with the help of shock test, it is ensured that American ships can withstand harsh conditions in war-like situations or not. If any problem is found during this testing, it is rectified and the soldiers benefit greatly from this.

Ever wonder what a 40,000 pound explosive looks like from the bridge wing of a @USNavy aircraft carrier?

The USS Gerald R. Ford, the advance carrier, exploded in the Atlantic Ocean about 100 miles off the coast of Florida. Let us tell you that this explosion has been carried out by the US Navy inside the sea. At the same time, the aircraft carrier was above the surface of the water.

In this case, some people on social media have also expressed concern about the marine environment and the creatures present here due to this explosion. The US Navy said in this case that these controlled explosions are done in view of the environment. They respect the migration pattern of sea creatures, so after looking at all the aspects, this explosion has been done in a safe way.
