Here the tsar bomb is listed as having unknown speed, but we can calc the speed using this calculator
The average air resistance is around 1.2 kg/m3, and the weight of the tsar bomb is 60,000 lbs, It was dropped at a height of 34,449 ft, But it detonated 13,123ft from the ground, So we will be using 21326 feet as its freefall, putting this into a calculator we get this.
Speed: 696.81863350836 mph (Transonic)
Now if we calc it using the normal 34,449 ft it would come out to,
819.77389460441 Mph (Transonic)
