Nukes [Fabric]
Tired of vanilla TNT that barely scratches the surface? Nukes [Fabric] is a compact add-on that adds five tiered explosives to Minecraft, each one delivering a bigger, meaner blast radius than the last. If you enjoy terraforming mountains, strip-mining entire biomes, or simply watching the world burn in glorious slow motion, this mod was built for you.
What Does Nukes [Fabric] Add?
The concept is simple but devastating. Every nuke in the mod scales its explosion radius based on the material used to craft it. Coal is your entry point, Netherite is your doomsday button. Here is the full breakdown:
- Coal Nuke – Two times the radius of TNT
- Iron Nuke – Three times the radius of TNT
- Gold Nuke – Four times the radius of TNT
- Diamond Nuke – Five times the radius of TNT
- Netherite Nuke – Ten times the radius of TNT
That Netherite tier is not a joke. A single detonation can erase a small village, flatten a hillside, or open a crater deep enough to expose diamonds you never knew were there. Just make sure you take cover, because standing anywhere near ground zero is a one-way trip to the respawn screen.
Minecraft Versions and Loader Support
Nukes [Fabric] is built for the Fabric loader, which means it plays nicely with the lightweight mod setups many players prefer for performance and quick updates. It is designed for modern Minecraft releases, so whether you are running a recent 1.20.x build or a slightly older 1.19.x world, you can usually find a compatible file. Always check the version list on the download page before installing, since Fabric mods are version-sensitive and mixing builds can cause crashes.
If you want to skip the manual file juggling entirely, the foxygame.net launcher offers a one-click install path that drops Nukes [Fabric] straight into a ready-made Fabric profile, so you can go from browsing to detonating in under a minute.
How to Install Nukes [Fabric] for Minecraft
Step 1: Install Fabric
Download the Fabric installer and run it for your chosen Minecraft version. This creates a Fabric profile in your launcher.
Step 2: Get Fabric API
Most Fabric mods, including this one, rely on Fabric API. Grab the matching version and drop it into your mods folder.
Step 3: Download Nukes [Fabric]
Head to a trusted mod hosting site and download Nukes [Fabric] for your exact game version. Avoid mismatched files.
Step 4: Move the File
Place the downloaded .jar into your .minecraft/mods folder. Launch the Fabric profile and confirm the mod loads on the title screen.
Crafting and Recipes
Each nuke uses its namesake material plus a surrounding shell of common blocks, so progression feels natural. Early game, you will be lobbing Coal Nukes to clear space for a base. By the time you have Netherite ingots to spare, you can reshape entire regions. The recipes are balanced enough that you will not trivialize survival, but generous enough that the payoff always feels worth the grind.
Explosive areas scale dramatically, which makes these tools ideal for large-scale projects: quarrying, canal digging, mountain carving, and clearing space for mega-builds. Pair them with a shield and some fire resistance, and you have a demolition kit that vanilla Minecraft simply cannot match.
Why Players Keep Coming Back
There is something deeply satisfying about a mod that respects the classic Minecraft loop while cranking the chaos dial. Nukes [Fabric] does exactly that. It is small, focused, and delivers on its promise without bloating your game with unnecessary systems. Whether you are a redstone engineer testing blast resistance or a builder who just wants a faster way to move dirt, the tiered nuke system gives you a clear progression path.
Just remember the golden rule: light the fuse, then run. The blast radius does not care how attached you are to your inventory.
Download Nukes [Fabric], fire up Fabric, and start turning mountains into memories. Your world will never look the same again.
