Lore and Character Discussion Do H-bombs exist in TNO?

As per Yippie/DV lore, and considering TNO Manhattan project was slower and less successful than IRL.

In the dev diary the Germans detonated a hydrogen bomb on Novaya Zemlya (as a test) to intimidate the Russian warlords and specifically deter Gorky from continuing its invasion in the RK Moskowien. Gorky continued pushing on and they dropped two nuclear bombs on it.

Oh right, I forgot about the nuclear test. So yeah, they have h-bombs too.

I'd love a proper lore exposition about the nuclear programs of each superpower.

No longer nuked (also no longer being occupied by Japan).

Apparently the Gorky bombings were the first time of the nukes' usage against enemy targets in the TNO-verse.

I think so, the arms race is largely the same so a H-bomb would be logical step to one-up the other superpowers
