After Thursday’s successful combat use in Afghanistan of the newest weapon in America’s arsenal, dubbed the “Mother of All Bombs,” reports indicate Russia has developed something even more powerful.
Russia claims to have a thermobaric bomb four times more powerful than the Massive Ordnance Air Blast (MOAB) deployed against an ISIS terrorist stronghold in the Nangarhar province in Afghanistan.
Some see the use of MOAB as a message to North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un and other hostile leaders that America will take a tougher stance against its foes.

I think the thermobaric is the scariest/ coolest
4x more powerful at a fraction of the cost.
Maybe so ,but it is not as accurate. The Moab has a guidance system. Where the Russian one is just a parachute drop.
Bomb envy.
Yeah, just dont have enough gas to get it anywhere
Just like Russia had a space shuttle.
Stop posting this nonsensical click bait and get a life.
why is everything a pissing contest?
Oh, no! We have a bomb gap! We can’t have a bomb gap, Mr. President! We need a bigger, better, huger, more blasticulous bombastic bbomb!!!!
