We can split the atom and we are reduced to throwing rocks!

All joking aside, the concrete bombs are very useful and were widely used during the active war stage in attacking tanks and other heavy equipment like AAA guns.

Seems to me this method was first employed with iron bombs in NAM. More then one pilot had complained years back they could not understand why they where to drop bombs full of conctrete rather then live ordnance. At any rate, makes sense in cases given.

During the siege of Fallujah, I suggested that the Marines get Jimmy Dean sausages..flash-freeze them...and launch them via mortar tubes..

Falling rocks build up more downward momentum than falling atoms. And the split ones tend to drift off course.
