#3 The Mark 4 did not have the plutonium “pit” installed, so a nuclear detonation was not possible. The conventional explosive would go off at a pre-set altitude and destroy the bomb and its components. This was a security measure to prevent a complete bomb from being recovered.
The bomb was released at 9,000 feet ( 2,743 meters), north-northwest of Princess Royal Island on the northwest coast of British Columbia, Canada. It was fused to detonate 1,400 meters above the surface, and crewmen reported seeing a large explosion.
