A realistic Teller-Ulam two stage thermonuclear bomb design. When the bomb is triggered, ordinary explosive first compress a plutonium core to ignite a fission reaction, which then ignites the plutonium tamper and ignites the much bigger fusionr reaction

    yes it implodes the plutonium core to make it go critical and explode so it kickstarts the much larger fusion reaction

    it might just be because it implodes first and then explodes

    First implosion, then explosion, I believe there is a certain way of categorizing weapons between the 2, but I'm not quite sure how it's done

    Nice recreation, very faithful to the classic types near the start of the fusion bomb era. +1
