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.

Hard to tell what damage it did as there is a crater in the way of the tunnel......
Someone else may have done this on this thread, but I wanted to add this just in case.
This MOAB bomb was estimated to carry 21,600 lbs of TNT. LINK
That is 10.53 tons of TNT. (1 ton = 2000 pounds)
Definition of a kiloton: LINK
The Hiroshima bomb was pegged at 15 thousand tons of TNT and the Nagasaki bomb was pegged at 21 thousand tons of TNT. LINK
