"Chinese MOAB?"

Why? Too many people on FR mention MOAB yet for 999 out of 1000 missions it would be the munition of last choice even for us.

It is not that useful of a weapon. So why would the Chinese cart 20000 =/- lbs of practically useless bomb, in a CARGO plane no less, 20000 +/- miles to use on us?

We would hope they would fly in in a slow lumbering cargo plane that we can shoot out of the sky with an old Aircobra.

I was refering to Us shooting one of the chinese tankers out of the air and the result of the shoot with the fuel in the tanker.

No the use of a MOAB.

BTW, IIRC this is the only time except on the thread about the MOAB test in Fla that I have even mentioned one.
