“B-52s can also carry nuclear weapons, which, ironically enough, are much smaller than the MOAB yet thousands of times more powerful. “

Ironic?

The bomb made waves last April when a US military plane dropped a GBU-43/B MOAB on an allegedly Daesh-run terrorist camp in Afghanistan.

I thought that the MOAB was used by President Bush. Gaddafi quickly fell into line. Is that not true?

Just reclassify a few C-130s as B-130s and Bob’s your uncle.

When MOAB was being tested at the nearby AFB, I lived directly across the road from the north perimeter fence. The pictures fell off the walls several times when tests occurred,and I estimate I was at least 8 or 9 miles from the actual test site.
