Rememer you are quite a distance away.
You'd probably be dead if you were 500 ft from the center of impact.
This thing is pretty whimpy though. I suggest taking a KC-130 refuelling tanker, filling the tank with the same explosive mixture, and using GPS to deliver the world's biggest conventional bomb ever made.
Better yet, use an Antonov 225. It can carry 250 tons. Imagine an DOAB -- Daddy of all bombs.

Thanks, I hate pulling off of the media. I like talking to the horse.

It works! Ship it! An intial order of about a 1,000 would be nice, but probably unrealistic, so we'll settle for a couple of hundred, or more if the contractor can manage it. :)

"Objects in the video may be bigger than they appear" Yeah, didn't look all that big, did it? Of course, there isn't anything that really gives a good indication of scale, or of blast damage outside the fireball.

Who needs a tactical nuke when you've got these things? This is the answer to any threatened chem/bio attack. Just announce any commander who launches a chem/bio attack will have one of these dropped on his HQ.
And all a soldier on the ground can do is watch that thing slowly fall to earth. Shiver.

The media already conveyed the military's purpose for it? I guess I missed it. What is it?
