Can you imagine being in the cargo bay with that monster releasing it out the back on top of ISIS fighters?

It would be 27648 times more satisfying than the greatest shite in recorded human history.

Negative, this beast is too big and heavy, C-130 Herk or C-17 Barney get this tasking.

Nice to see you still exist Dale. You haven't had much to cheer about lately, what with Trump getting bent over by the uniparty and becoming a GOPe cucksucker.

Anyone know what the parachute is for when the bomb initially is released? You can see it trailing off in the beginning of the footage.


Edit: Is it for getting the big arse thing off of the plane?

Neither are possible. Bomb weights 21,000+ lbs. tomahawk carries 1000 lb payload. "Fighter Jet" isn't carrying that either.


Even if they could, watching that video they were saying how the shell is made of a very thin aluminum, so that the impact of the bomb is greater. I doubt they want to fill it up with fuel and a stronger outer shell to be able to fire it off, even if that was possible.
It would be like wrapping a firecracker with metal. wouldn't really do anything. wrap it in paper, and you get a nice little explosion.
