I guess I should add that this thing has a couple of significant characteristics.

1. It is the original Nuc Bunker Buster — first versions developed in the 60 for ground penetration.

2. At 700 lbs it can be carried by anything — hence the F-16

3. At 11’8 and about a 13” diameter it can ship anywhere in large numbers.

4. It was developed when the Soviets were using about a thousand feet of granite for their Cheyenne Mtn equivalent — NK did dig that deep.

[2. At 700 lbs it can be carried by anything]

So you could, in theory, strap Rosie O’Donnell to an F-16 and drop her on ISIS?

Then again, that might violate the Geneva Convention.

We’ll just drop the LeRoy Neiman paintings.
