No, they're just the ultimate means of transportation. The Enola Gay isn't regarded as the reason Hiroshima and Nagasaki were blown up, but rather the means of transportation for the tragedy.

Just a point of pedantic correction: Enola Gay only dropped the bomb (Little Boy) on Hiroshima. Nagasaki (Fat Man) was Bockscar.

I mean... The statement still works. Enola Gay was the means of transport for the tragedy

Is this a typo, or have I been living a lie my whole life, thinking it was Boxcar?

It also wasn't a biological weapon. Biological weapons have to be the direct cause of injury.
