two 15kt detonations, airburst 2000ft above the surface. first strike (west) is on the Nizhny Novgorod Machine-Building Plant (what i presume was the tank factory) the second strike directly on the city center. the casualty numbers were calculated using current population data which, given this is 1960s warlord russia we are talking about, i would cut those numbers by 30-50% if you want a better estimate.
