see post # 31........the pics shown are of a much lesser weapon than the “MOP”. This debate means nothing.

I *would* like to see similar pics of an actual MOP such as the above, but I don’t think we will any time soon.

So true.

folks need to remember that the “massive” portion” of this ordinance is NOT the amount of explosive material inside; but rather the mass of the device itself.

The secret sauce is in its ability to penetrate, survive the journey through substrates designed to NOT let it penetrate, and then have live fuses to detonate its relatively modest amount of explosive. STILL, it’ll carry plenty to destroy what’s in the bunker, etc etc.

And just to reinforce my point, we CAN always use more than one on the same target.

That is true, as the there have been only three test drops thus far and no publicly released photos. . .yet.
