I think that was the so-called “daisy cutter”, more of a fuel-air bomb than ten tons of explosives.

I think that was “only” a Daisy Cutter,which is a fraction in size/weight.

This is the first time for this one, which is 21,000 lbs of high explosives. I believe the ones you mentioned​ were 15,000 lb.
