We just dropped a MOAB on ISIS in Afghanistan. This is the first time this weapon has ever been used. It's the largest non-nuclear bomb in the US arsenal. It has a blast radius of 1 mile.

1. A bomb, in the technical context is a specific kind of weapon. A VBIED is not, in that sense, a bomb

2. Net Explosive Weight. That means how powerful your explosive is. A VBIED filled with some bullshit homebrew explosive that's got a NEW of 1 is going to be less efficient than some high end military explosive with a bigger NEW. Largest in this context may mean the largest blast radius or explosive power, not physical size of the weapon.

It's an airburst bomb, good for wiping out masses of unarmored surface assets. It's useless against tunnels and the like.
>>
>>33632091
You're right. The most powerful explosive that we have that is still a stable secondary is CL-20. It's a pentagonal cage structure with near zero oxygen balance. It's relative effectiveness to TNT is about 2 meaning it's twice as "powerful" given the same weight and density. However, it costs over $1000 per lb to make vs a few dollars per pound for tritonol.

Pretty much just dick waving. ISIS killed a green beret a few days before, so the dick waving was warranted.

Pretty much. The MOAB was a dickwaving weapon since day 1 anyway, there's a reason we'd never used one before.

No, it's H6. A blend of RDX, nitrocellulose, TNT and aluminum.
>Surely we could get a bigger blast [with dangerous, expensive exotic compounds]
Sure, OR you could get a bigger blast with a bigger bomb. This thing wasn't exactly built for finesse. Exotic explosives are only really necessary and useful in applications which are highly weight-sensitive (like missiles) or which require extraordinary detonation velocities (like anti-tank warheads).
>Im pretty curious about bomb R and D anyone else know more about this sort of thing?
As far as exotic energetic compounds go, the Navy's working on a compound called CL-20, or more formally hexanitrohexazieodifhdslkaflidjhfafpwurzitane or some shit like that. It's almost twice as energetic as TNT, has one of the highest known detonation velocities, and supposedly it can either be used as an explosive or can be formulated to burn slow enough to act as a rocket propellant too.

>The [blast] kill mechanism against living targets is unique–and unpleasant.... What kills is the pressure wave, and more importantly, the subsequent rarefaction [vacuum], which ruptures the lungs.... If the fuel deflagrates but does not detonate, victims will be severely burned and will probably also inhale the burning fuel. Since the most common FAE fuels, ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, are highly toxic, undetonated FAE should prove as lethal to personnel caught within the cloud as most chemical agents

Israel doesn't want to have anybody defeated, they want to destabilize the region so they can expand. Nobody likes kikes, certainly not /k/, but you are seriously suffering from a misunderstanding. Israel loves jihadi groups because they cause chaos and people in chaos can be taken advantage of. If these groups were dealt with cut and dry then you wouldn't have so many refugees, Israel forces the refugees by keeping the war from ending.

Okay guys, I need some clarification here. The article OP posted describes the GBU-43/B as a "fuel-air bombs [sic]" and explains "it works by spreading a cloud of flammable gas and then igniting it".

FABs are a type of thermobaric weapon, right? They use a primary charge to disperse a fuel in a large cloud, then use a secondary charge to detonate the cloud. The defining feature is that they use ambient air as the oxidizer, right?

But the GBU-43/B uses H6, which consist primarily of TNT, nitrocellulose, and RDX, all of which do not require oxidizers, right?

FAB's are different to thermobaric explosives. Thermobaric explosives utilise excess fuels that prolong the blast wave by burning atmospheric oxygen.
The MOAB is not a FAE but H6 is thermobaric due to the high aluminium content.
