So basically half a Hiroshima.

Imagine what 20,000 nuclear payload drones of this size might do?

So we went from the knee-jerk reflex statement of the last 5 Presidents saying, “Iran will never have a bomb” to the current analysis of what type of Drone delivery system could carry what size of a nuclear bomb from Iran???

WTF is going on?

Are we now seriously contemplating an Iranian first strike on Israel?

We were told they were “decimated”.

So...where are we really now?

You think Israel is going to take Pres. Trump’s word for it?

I didn't get that from reading the article. If the Hiroshima bomb was 15 kilotons and the expected maximum yield from a drone-carried bomb is .1 kiloton:

Realistic yield range: Roughly 10–100 tons of TNT equivalent (0.01–0.1 kilotons), possibly up to a few kilotons in an optimized design.

So 15 compared to .1 kiloton. 1/150th of the yield, if my early morning math is correct.

Ridiculous swinging d*cks games. The only reason for an explosion is for arseholes to point and show what they did.

Want to create terror? Just load a few kilos of radioactive powered Cobalt onto any small drone and crash it into a tall building. The wind will scatter the dust all over the city blocks and require complete evacuation. No one will even know until some dentist’s office downwind starts screaming alarms about their Xray machine having gone batshitte. By then anyone who has taken a breath is doomed.
