This towers are between 239m and 250m tall. What kind of ordnance could take them down? A well placed 2000lb JDAM?
Which weapons are used to obliterate big buildings?

I'm asking what would do an army not a terrorist

BARRACKS PARTIES IN THE BUILDINGS UNTIL THEY ROT FROM THE INSIDE OUT
Probably a 737, maybe a 747
>>34637214
Repeated direct fire with howizers to the base of those buildings will make them topple over like gigantic trees.
Realtalk, it's the sapper's job, not the actual combat arms guys.
It'd be easier to kill everything inside and leave behind a bombed out shell than to actually level the building.
I think two 747s would work wonders. Just make sure they take off from a local airport and are full of fuel.

That building has 60+ floors. Let's say it is packed with enemies with ATGMs, HMGs, and the like. Fortress style. You could bypass it, but let's say it is near a highway where your logistics are doing its things.
>>34637491
You... You do know sappers are combat arms, right? Like, this sort of situation is why combat engineers exist.
>>34637627
You then wonder why you're fighting a war against a modern enemy that thinks its a good idea to put that much stock in a 60 story building
>>34637691
I thought they were the guys doing things after the battle. Like blowing up damaged buildings and fixing bridges and that stuff
>>34637757
Nope that's (almost) every other engineering MOS. Combat engineers are the guys who do Frontline engineering stuff
>>34637627
Typically, you're going to see direct fire from tanks, armored personnel carriers, maybe even artillery and air.
The building doesn't offer a whole lot of protection, you'd be able to suppress/kill everything inside long before you flattened it.

I came here to post this.
>>34637627
We'd put some "illumination" rounds to it
>>34637757
More like clearing mine fields, roads of IEDs (Did this personally in both Iraq and Afghanistan), help with dynamic building breaches, build obstacles to stop an enemy advance, emplacing mines, etc etc.
Anywhere you might think the enemy has put something that detonates, you send Combat Engineers. We got a lot of trigger time overseas.
Essayons motherfucker.

Hit it with a MOP.
