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.

Bdu33 are drop from a SU16 with ( 10 bomb) some are what is call beer cans.I had problem with the SU16--the pickle button put out 28 vdc normally the bomb is releaseed --if wind move the doors of the SU16 the stepper switch (make & Brake the 28vdc) you can drop all the bombs from the SU16--the beer can was for nukes--

Pilot like bet on there score on the range-A friend
in F100 while line up for take off ---Would jump out of his Aircraft and reset the stepper switch--you could miss the range if you thought you were releasing a beer can and got a bdu33
