“We’re not yet at a point where we can say this individual pilot flying this particular aircraft was the one that the munition fell off of,” he said.

I was curious that a pilot would not notice that a bomb has fallen off of his plane then I noticed from your picture how small the bomb is.

Now I am curious that the bomb did the damage described.

They are 24 lbs. They have an explosive charge. (akin to a large shotgun shell)

But, dropped from an aircraft, it could do some damage.
