Blast wise, that is. It's not always the size that counts.
Our Mother Off All Bombs (MOAB) has to be be slid out the back of a cargo plane.
Russia's Father Of All Bombs (FOAB) can still be released through a bomb bay~or so the Ruskies say.
Guess Putin is also sayin' "Nyah! Nyah!"

    Yeow! Glad that's all that happened. Well, while wishing it had not happened to you at all, of course.

    I can attest to that. The electric igniter on my gas
    oven failed and I forgot to turn the gas off while I was fumbling around looking for the pistol lighter I keep in a kitchen drawer. When I flicked it, the "mutha" blew the hair off my arm and singed my eyebrows. Don't try this at home, folks!

    Now that the Russkies have started a size competition, I suggest we can use the old condom joke. Build a bomb twice the size of theirs and label it "Medium." Build it in Moab, Utah just to show them how serious we are.

    Now thathere's Mom and Pop bombs, the next move up will likely be the KOAL the king of all bombs, and the QOAB queen of all bombs. After that perhaps we'll name them after Greek Gods. I say dibs on ZOAL Zeus of all bombs. Also, I suggest the build them in Moab, Utah just to show the Russkies how serious we are.

    Glad Trump has taken the Obamanation leash of his military.
    Let the Joint Chiefs of Staff do what they were militarily trained to do.
    Failed street artist Hitler just had to do all the military thinking and everyone knows how that turned out. Yeah, attack Russia unprepared for winter just like Napoleon did

    The video narrator says the bomb "ignites a fuel air mixture in midair."
    So you could very well be right and have said it far better.
    I mean, one would hope that a "fuel air mixture" would be in the air. Harrumph!

    Probably a FAE (fuel-air-explosive) bomb. The US has them too. It basically disperses a fuel (and usually an oxygenator) into the atmosphere a couple hundred feet above the ground and then detonates it. It's the same thing that happens in the chamber of a standard gasoline engine, just without the piston.
