Hey, That's Not Scary

Yahoo News: The Russian military has successfully tested what it described as the world's most powerful non-nuclear air-delivered bomb, Russia's state television reported Tuesday. It was the latest show of Russia's military muscle amid chilly relations with the US. Channel One television said the new weapon, nicknamed the "dad of all bombs" is four times more powerful than the US "mother of all bombs."

Unlike a nuclear weapon, the bomb doesn't hurt the environment, he added.

The U.S. Massive Ordnance Air Blast, nicknamed the Mother Of All Bombs, is a large-yield satellite-guided, air-delivered bomb described as the most powerful non-nuclear weapon in history.

Hold on just a second. This is A BOMB. Nuclear or non, there's no getting around the fact that it will have...let's just say a 'fairly significant impact' on the environment of the area where it is deployed.

Russia! //shakes head and walks away//

I think these are generally used for tunnels, so it won't really zap too much - just muskrats, moles, and people the Kremlin don't like.
