U.S. dropped its largest non-nuclear weapon after targeting ISIS in Afghanistan.
The GBU-43 bomb weighs 21,600 pounds, is 30 feet long, contains 11 tons of explosives and carries a mile-wide blast radius.
It can create a blast crater more than 300 meters wide after being dropped from a Hercules MC-130 cargo plane.
Trump pledged in 2015 that if he became president he would 'bomb the s**t out of ' ISIS.
On Thursday he called the bombing 'another successful job' and said he had delegated strike authority to his military commanders.
Pentagon denies that it was revenge for the death on Saturday of a Green Beret soldier in the same region of Pakistan.

That is awesome! You can see the dust and smoke coming out of the connecting tunnel entrances.
I missed what you pointed out when I first posted that video on my Android phone.
I sent the video out to family members and friends, and they got back with what you noted.
So I ran it on my Ace Chromebook 15, and like you noted, It is awesome.
A friend was AF security and his Nam tours were in Laos protecting our planes, supplies, pilots and other guys who kept our planes flying and bombing.
He went into the VC tunnels around our air bases to take out Charlie. This weapon would have been great for him and his guys.
We can't get those at the fireworks stand down the street.
If Clinton had given authority to the commanders in the field bin laden would have been killed while Clinton was playing golf.
I thought it would be a little more impressive, but here it is.
Conversion Rounding;)

maybe even ludicrous!
Sounds very humane, actually
....and I’m pretty sure the development of
the thermobaric explosives was lead by, and the muzzies are gonna love this, a woman.

I wonder how many of these things we have.
I was wondering the same thing. I have looked and can’t find out. Probably a secret.
I think that is from a test back in 2003, i saw it in other youtube videos.
Nope. MOAB is a fuel air mixture bomb that is most effective with an airburst or near surface burst.
The bomb you are thinking of is a bunker buster. The latest version of these use old cannon barrels for inertial momentum and deep penetration. They rely on kinetic energy and confined explosions for effect.
Yes, amazing destructive power.
A MOAB would be a bit too much for the Tunnel Rats, however. LOL
(I was a Tunnel Rat for only two weeks. That was enough thank God).
You don’t have no whistlin’ bungholes, no spleen splitters, whisker biscuits, honkey lighters, hoosker doos, hoosker don’ts, cherry bombs, nipsy daisers, with or without the scooter stick, or one single MOAB?
I read that in 2003 after testing we had 15 left. So after using this one my guess is 14 more to go, hopefully with more on order asap...
Turning ISIS to WasWas.
destroy the murderous death-cult
“Somebody got their math wrong.”
That’s TNT blast yield.
