That's 250x hiroshima nuke in a single grenade. Someone at Bethesda didn't do their math...
Assuming it's 8.8 oz of antimatter. If it's equally split between matter and antimatter, half it, so 125x hiroshima.
I don't know... if we assume 8.8oz total for matter and antimatter together. All of that mass will be annihilated and converted into energy. I calculate that would yield 22,421,767,037 MJ, let's say 22,000 TJ. According to wikipedia, Little Boy had a 63 TJ yield, so this grenade is around 350 times that.
If it was 8.8 ounces of antimatter, it would combine with 8.8 ounces of normal matter to convert a total of 17.6 ounces of mass into energy. That would result in like 700 Hiroshima's total yield.
