Even in the worst cases of conventional bombing (like Tokyo), only 10%
of the affected population was killed.


It would appear that somewhere between 25 and 30 percent of the
Hiroshima population was killed. www.warbirdforum.com/hirodead.htm
Comparing kiloton equivalents, it might well be that the Tokyo fire
raid was much more devastating.
