They then proceeded, with much military efficiency and not much fanfare, to blow the shit out of the thing at the Salonie Creek Rifle Range around 5 p.m. Wednesday, closing the Chiniak Highway for an hour and making a big-ass boom, heard even in town.

LOL! Fusing is the last stage when loading weapons on aircraft, frankly running a car into it probably would not have detonated, although it depends on the state of the explosives used. When I was doing weapons loadouts, we used tritonal as the filler, it was no big deal to see them dropped, other than REALLY POing the load officer.
