China Successfully Tests Non-Nuclear Hydrogen Bomb with Sustained Fireball Technology
- Chinese researchers successfully tested a non-nuclear hydrogen bomb, creating a fireball over 1,000 degrees Celsius that lasted over two seconds, as reported by the South China Morning Post.
- The hydrogen bomb's explosion lasted 15 times longer than a similar strength TNT blast without nuclear materials, according to the study published in the Chinese Journal of Missiles and Guidance.
- U.S. Intelligence agencies are monitoring activities in China's Xinjiang region, as reported by The Financial Times, due to concerns about China’s growing nuclear capabilities.
- James Acton from the Carnegie Endowment noted that advancements in hydrogen bomb technology could signal a strategic message to the U.S. And its allies about Beijing's deterrence strategy.

China successfully detonates a new hydrogen bomb that creates “a sustained hell”
When you hear about a hydrogen bomb or H bomb, by history manuals, you can take us back to 1952, in the middle of the Cold War, when the U.S. was called the world’s most powerful bomb destroyer than the atomic bombs dropped in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. So they became the first country to test the hydrogen bomb. However, now Chinese researchers have announced that they have successfully tested an explosive device based on hydrogen in a controlled f…
China successfully detonates new hydrogen-based weapon
In a startling development that has drawn international concern, China has reportedly advanced its thermonuclear weapons program, raising alarms over a possible shift in the global strategic balance. While not officially confirmed by Beijing, recent reports and defense assessments have highlighted growing evidence that China may have successfully tested or deployed a new type of […]
China’s New Non-Nuclear Hydrogen Warhead Could Be a Game Changer
The world’s first warhead of its kind, a hydrogen-based non-nuclear explosive device, has been detonated for the first time in a controlled field test in China, with the warhead successfully triggering a series of devastating chemical chain reactions to delivery significantly greater explosive force than conventional TNT. The two kilogram bomb generated a fireball exceeding 1,000 degrees Celsius for more than two seconds, which was 15 times lon…
China tests hydrogen-based bomb that burns hotter, longer than TNT
Chinese researchers successfully tested a new hydrogen-based explosive that releases sustained high heat without using nuclear material. The weapon, developed by the China State Shipbuilding Corporation’s 705 Research Institute, reportedly produced a fireball exceeding 1,800°F that lasted more than two seconds — 15 times longer than conventional TNT, according to the South China Morning Post. What is the bomb made of? According to Chinese defens…
