But on the other hand, his efforts to stop the war were pursued in a very heinous way, making 246 thousand lives become 'sacrifices'. Then, where is the existence of this legendary plane now? What task does he now carry? To find out, let's go back 75 years, when this plane was transformed into a legendary and deadly aircraft. Right on August 9, 1945, a nuclear bomb with super large explosive power was dropped by US aircraft on the city of Nagasaki, Japan. The dropping of the atomic bomb nicknamed "Fat Man" caused the city of Nagasaki to nearly flatten to the ground, killing up to 32% of the city's population, and ending World War II.
