Man that is one heavy duty parachute, so glad things are working out, 75,00 lbs will make one big hole if the chute fails.

Can you imagine the result if that 90,000 pound shape was filled with TNT or other exotic explosive!

The MOAB "only" weighs 10,000 pounds! That sucker would be up to nine times that!

The USAF apparently took care of that as I cannot access the www.af.mil (http://www.af.mil) story from Tel Aviv :icon_lol: :engel016:

And no doubt soon have immediately ready plans available for how to reduce the stockpile in short order! One could perhaps easily zero in on the likely "test" site also! :kilroy:
