DAD of all Bombs!!

this is quite an old news.its more famously known as vakum bomb in russia by ordinary people.
 
Actually this DAD OF ALL BOMBS thanks to me i posted it in another thread under top 10 weapons that change the world or something non ever posted only I posted it...thank for a lil more information posted here but its actually named FOAB>>FATHER OF ALL BOMBS not dad of all bombs FOAB was released after MOAB...FOAB is even more destructible then MOAB..

Respected sir,
Giving this weapon some of your own name isn't right FOAB as you are saying isn't correct at all as the fig tell you that this weapon hasnt been given an intrinsic name so far, only a code & nothing else do provide me a link where it has been quoated as FOAB
 
well there is no practical appliccation of such ammunition, it is just meant to show off ones military muscel!!!

is it not like this??
 
excuse me mod which one of you mods removed my posts from this thread??

I guess you could wipe out a big static target like a military base with this. If you used many smaller bombs you could miss a lot of stuff. Using this would pretty much wipe out everything by the looks of it.
 
I actually just read that during the first Gulf War, the US used B-52s on low levelling bombing runs against Iraqi frontline forces. 3 B-52s bombed each dropped 153 750pound bombs in a target area of only 1.5 x 1 mile wide which devastated the Iraqi troops in that area.

They did lose 1 B-52 and several damaged due to Iraqi ground action.

They could have instead dropped one Dad of All Bombs or the MOAB if they had it at the time. Maybe that was what triggered the development of the MOAB?
 
lol Russian are something ..I wonder why they used term Father of all Bombs against Mother of all Bombs ... LoLzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz That was one heck of a name ...

For the bold part - It is perhaps related to the fact that Russians consider their country a fatherland, in comparison to most other people that call their homeland, their motherland.
 
This news is about three years old. How come we're all discussing it now? :/

Anyway, here's a basic comparison of FOAB with the MOAB.

Comparing the United States and Russian bombs
Indicator USA (МОАВ) Russia (FОАВ)
Mass: 8200 kg 7100 kg
TNT equivalent: 11 tons 44 tons
Blast radius: 150 m (500 ft) 300 m (1000 ft)
Guidance: INS/GPS (Unknown)
Accuracy (CEP): <13m (<42 ft) varies, probably >100 m (325ft)

Now that is huge.
 
Dad (Russia) and Mother (USA) of all bombs.... :devil: BTW when they got married? :woot: :bunny:

I believe, the call if Mother Russia or Motherland, not fatherland.

The MOAB is not mother of all bombs, rather its just a nickname out of the original Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb.

The russians came up with Aviation Thermobaric Bomb of Increased Power (ATBIP) which was given nick name as father of all bombs, as MOAB had already been taken and the Russian one is supposed to be more powerful then the MOAB, thus the name Father was given.

It has nothing to do with the Fatherland thingy, as Russia uses Motherland.
