Isnt any H bomb more powerful than the relatively primitive bombs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Yep. 15 KT for Hiroshima and 21 KT (est) for Nagasaki.
On a side note, there were at least four Japanese people who got caught in both bombs. Which would have sucked.

I read the efficiency of Little Boy was just 1.4%, while that of Fat Man was 17%.

Yeah, that *would* have sucked. Imagine the level of bad luck involved in that happenstance, as viewed though the lens of history. Staggering.
