Nine nuclear explosions were initiated, culminating in the United Kingdom becoming the third recognised possessor of thermonuclear weapons, and the restoration of the nuclear Special Relationship with the United States in the form of the 1958 US–UK Mutual Defence Agreement.

  • L'opération Grapple désigne une série de neuf essais nucléaires menée par le Royaume-Uni en 1957 et 1958 sur les îles Kiritimati et Malden dans le Pacifique, dans le cadre de son programme d'obtention de la bombe H. À son issue, le Royaume-Uni est devenu la troisième puissance à disposer d'armes thermonucléaires après les États-Unis et l'URSS. (fr)
  • كانت عملية المرساة اسمًا لأربعة سلاسل اختبار أسلحة نووية بريطانية لأول القنابل الذرية والهيدروجينية، التي نُفذت بين عامي 1957 و1958 في كل من جزيرتي مالدن وكريماتي (جزيرة عيد الميلاد) في المحيط الهادئ كجزء من البرنامج البريطاني للقنبلة الهيدروجينية. أجريت تسع تفجيرات نووية، توّجت بتحول المملكة المتحدة إلى ثالث دولة معترف بامتلاكها أسلحة نووية حرارية، وباستعادة العلاقة النووية الخاصة التي تربطها بالولايات المتحدة عبر اتفاقية الدفاع المشترك بين الولايات المتحدة والمملكة المتحدة في عام 1958.
