@commando old HuckTunnPeru up there is saying it's a fission bomb simply because of the cloud, so yeah... That guy is an idiot.

Sounds like it might have been a nuclear powered missile. USA built one in the '50s but abandoned it because it let off radiation. Probably not a concern for Russia.

@commando, I'm referring to your linked tweet which says (emphasis mine):
QuoteWatch the plumes of the explosion. It has the typical configuration of a mushroom cloud, typical of nuclear fission bombs. Conventional explosives don’t behave that way. This was definitely a nuclear blast of some sort.
That is incorrect.
I agree with you that it could have been a conventional explosive that spread nuclear material. But there are a lot of possibilities since the Russian govt isn't known for honestly or transparency.
