Thanks for clearing that up Sunburn! @Tailhook, I did look it all up after you mentioned it - I was curious how an anti-sub warhead was detonated above the water to take out a sub. On the wiki's for the B-57 Nuclear Bomb it mentions it can be dropped as a Depth Bomb version. "The B57 was produced in six versions (mods) with explosive yields ranging from 5 to 20 kilotons. Mod 0 was 5 kt, Mod 1 and Mod 2 were 10 kt, Mod 3 and Mod 4 were 15 kt, and Mod 5 was 20 kt. The depth bomb version of the B57, for the U.S. Navy, replaced the Mk 101 Lulu and had selectable yield up to 10 kt." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B57_nuclear_bomb Interesting stuff!
