WASHINGTON, September 13 (RIA Novosti) - The U.S. has a 14-ton super bomb more destructive than the vacuum bomb just tested by Russia, a U.S. general said Wednesday.
The statement was made by retired Lt. General McInerney, chairman of the Iran Policy Committee, and former Assistant Vice Chief of Staff of the Air Force.
McInerney said the U.S. has "a new massive ordnance penetrator that's 30,000 pounds, that really penetrates ... Ahmadinejad has nothing in Iran that we can't penetrate."

I heard the man speaking, and the article greatly twists what he said.
He essentially dismissed the Russian bomb with a “whatever” and then pointed out that there was no “gap” because we didn’t desire a bigger bomb, because we had a better, i.e. a precision penetrator that goes very deep.

Bombs are like real estate, Location, Location, Location!
Doesn't matter how big of a whole you can blow in field, bit if you can drop one through a ventilation shaft, you got game.
