Enemies of the United States will never be able to use bad weather to hide again.

Here's Allison's money quote:
Made by Raytheon, the bomb is fired from fighter jets thousands of miles high in the sky and penetrates bad weather to attack moving and stationary targets on the ground.
Those are some serious fighter jets!
