3.some busy body told me that Sg tested fuel-air explosives in
south afraica in 1980's! -
and.. your point being?
-
peace is not in the earth yet.
be prepared.our US$400 billion reserves will attract attack
in the name of promoting democracy and freedom in Singapore. -
doomsday clock is at 5 min. -
the use of such bombs are only done during a direct and declared war..
the price of macho, testosterone-poisoned posturing is ultimately useless and pointless.. and serves only to kill the country who thinks that such weapons solve anything with hubris..
again, what is your point?
and even more, what is Russia's point?
you've got an absolute ass there who thinks he's a popular watered-down Stalin in power.. with the roubles afforded to him by oil...
stupidity, power, money and a delusion of grandeur is a mix which usually blows up the owner.. and sometimes a few others around him if they are actually stupid enough to go poke him or even admit his existence -
that is not father of all bombs
you need to wiki more often
Tsar Bomba = 50 megatons of TNT

And it was only 50 megatons because they put lead into it to slow down half the neutrons.Originally posted by allentyb:that is not father of all bombs

In theory, it could have hit 100megatons! Pure gold!

There's a bomb called MOAB in the US and they nicknamed it Mother of All Bombs
Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb -
That's pintsize lah... Besides, the Russians have long had thermobaric explosives. They also have rocketry systems with thermobaric explosive warheads.Originally posted by ChingAlvin:There's a bomb called MOAB in the US and they nicknamed it Mother of All Bombs
Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb -
diff bombs for diff purposes i thinkOriginally posted by ChingAlvin:There's a bomb called MOAB in the US and they nicknamed it Mother of All Bombs
Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb
MOAB explodes in the air to reveal thousands of mini bombs, each able to destroy a tank and each mini bomb is equipped with radar sensor, targeting individual targets themselves and covers a huge radius...
not those conventional big blast bomb. -
In an open declared war, American no longer holds the edge. Check out the Russian RS-24.

Heck, Americans can't even win in Iraq, let's not even talk about the other big powers. -

you're confusing your MOABs with your CBUs (cluster bomb unit)...MOABs don't contain mini bombs.Originally posted by ChingAlvin:diff bombs for diff purposes i think

This is crap.
They rather spend money on weapons of mass destruction than research on how to slow down global warming, shortage of fuel and food.
What is there to defend if the Mother Earth is destroyed?
I will never understand the minds of the powerful leaders behind all this. -

and note that pumping more money into the research for those matters does not mean you will get better or faster results. -
Putin on the phone: Is George there?
Bush answers: Ya, US President speakingÂ…
Putin: Buddy, Guess what? I have just detonated a bomb like no other, exclusive only for you, you know, fishes used to be so hard to catch in the d*mn Siberia, now, with the help of the bomb, theyÂ’re stunned like sitting ducks, awaiting you & me to catch. How about we go fishing right after the bombing?
Bush, murmuring in the mind: %^Xc5&*@##A$$ -
