US’ Daisey Cutter is 22,000 lbs. https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/04/13/523777933/u-s-drops-biggest-non-nuclear-bomb-ever-used-in-combat

But the 3,000 lb. FAB is the world’s “most destructive”?

This is how propaganda works, folks. They call it the “most destructive” to implant that into your subconscious. Makes it easier to dehumanize the opposition.

Daisy cutters are very, very few, especially with the US unable to secure TNT, RDX and other energetic materials. Thanks Joe.

That said, Vlad has tens of thousands, some say hundreds of thousands of FAB’s, which are nothing but Soviet era bombs fitted with wings and pin point guidance systems. The FAB 500 was responsible for the fall of Avdivka were it was noted they used up to 200 a day. The FAB 1500, much heavier, capable of destroying hardened concrete defensive positions…enter the FAB 3000, presumably just developed to annihilate any known defensive structure.

The Ukies much talked about defensive line is, as the Ukro Nazis say, “ Kaput”.

When Vlad goes on a full offensive, which he hasn’t-yet- I fully expect the Ukies to fold like like my lawn chair.

I think the most destructive aerial bomb is a 20 megaton thermonuclear device. All others are cherry bombs in comparison.

Insee your daisy cutter and raise you a B61-13 with its 340 kilotons of awesomeness.
