MOSCOW — The Russian military has successfully tested what it described as the world's most powerful non-nuclear air-delivered bomb, Russia's state television reported Tuesday.
Channel One television said the new ordnance, nicknamed the "dad of all bombs" is four times more powerful than the U.S. "mother of all bombs."
"The tests have shown that the new air-delivered ordnance is comparable to a nuclear weapon in its efficiency and capability," Alexander Rukhsin, a deputy chief of the Russian military's General Staff, said in televised remarks.
The statement comes amid the Kremlin's efforts to restore Russia's global clout and rebuild the nation's military might.
The U.S. Massive Ordnance Air Blast, nicknamed the Mother Of All Bombs, is a large-yield satellite-guided, air delivered bomb described as the most powerful non-nuclear weapon in history.
Tehran would be a good place to test it
Time to whip out the Granddaddy Of All Bombs. GOAB. If they still want to dance we roll out the Mother-In-Law Of All Bombs (MILOAB) and watch ‘em faint.
I suggest we get to work on a grandad of all bombs ASAP.
They probably are more interested in selling it to Syria. ;)
Yeah, but we have a bunch of Ben Affleck movies ...
Dad of all bims?
After eating said chili my dad, ensconced in his recliner in the living room in front of the TV, Would create a machine gun brap-brap-brap sound that quickly cleared out the room.
That was the first Dad Of All Bombs; for me, anyway.
"We must not let there be a Parent Of All Bombs Gap!"
Air transportable means something different to Russians than it does to Syrians.
My mother can whup your dad.
Grand Slam Bomb (UK) - 22,000lbs, 9,135lb torpedo explosive warhead
MOAB (US) - 21,000lbs, blast is equivalent to 11 tons of TNT.
Honestly....does anyone really believe the Russians?
C’mon...the Russian that use to work on my floor believes we sank the Kursk...
I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
The infantile Russkies want so badly to resume the old arms race. DOAB... pffft. Pure unoriginality. Their “Czar Bomba” showed more ingenuity.
Listen, Pooty-Poot. We outspent the SovUnion into oblivion, and didn’t even raise a sweat. Don’t make us do the same to tiny old Russia.
Yah, for raw unpleasantness I’d say the MILOAB, the mother-in-law of all bombs, would indeed be at the top of the heap.
If the CIA were 1/100th as efficient as the Conspiracy Theory crowd seems to think, we would own this planet by now.
Yeah, yeah, yeah... 
then the MMADD group (Mad Mothers Against Drinken Driving) would get into the act PDQ forming MABB (Mad Mothers Against Bigger Bombs)
Which, of course... 
would lead to me forming DRAMM (Drunken Robots Against Mad Mothers) ASAP!
The article is pathetically light on details?
How is this delivered? whats the range? accuracy?
