Yield?

1 megaton or somewhere around that. I suppose 130kt is lightweight in comparison but could for a regional effect (like Ottawa)

1.4-1.45 megatons.
You understand thermonuclear weapon yields, and the exponential nature of electromagnetic effects, especially with regard to proximity, yes?
170KT vs 1.4MT...
Hmmm...

Oh yes. 1.4MT vs 130KT. No even in the same ballpark. See my other reply.
