News reports I saw said nothing about nerve agents - they reported chlorine gas.

“”they reported chlorine gas.””

And that’s exactly what the cylinder looks like except with fins added to stabilize during free fall. Very similar to the barrel bomb modifications. The fact that it didn’t release gas isn’t surprising since there’s no detonating device, just the brass neck and valve. It’s kind of a drop and hope weapon, drop and hope it snaps the neck off like the other one apparently did. No damage to the bed? Looks like it took a pretty good hit considering the cylinder it self doesn’t weigh much and the roof slowed it down considerably. It’s not like it’s a bunker buster. The whole design looks like it was built to be dropped from a helicopter just like the barrel bombs.
