"Fat man" was the codename for the atomic bomb that was detonated over Nagasaki, Japan, by the United States on August 9, 1945.
According to Wikipedia, "Fat Man was possibly named after Winston Churchill, though Robert Serber said in his memoirs that as the Fat Man bomb was round and fat, he named it after Sidney Greenstreet's character in The Maltese Falcon."
The 'Fat Man' was the plutonium-fueled implosion-design atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki, Japan on August 9, 1945 by the United States. It was dropped by the B-29 named "Bockscar", and had a yield of approximately 21kT. Immediate and near-term deaths totalled approximately 50,000, with about the same number injured.
The two nuclear bombs used in World War II were Little Boy and Fat Man. Fat Man was completed in July 1945 and detonated on August 9, 1945 over Nagasaki, Japan.
