Could actually be true. It's only a conventional bomb. Meaning: you just drop it. The fins could possibly give some guidance (not sure about that part), but that's it.
The propulsion system and long range guidance is where most of the costs come from.

Just figured out there is also a FOAB, a Russian response to the MOAB: 4x stronger -> 44T.



awesome...



Btw using data gived by pentagon, based on 2003 $ value (making 230k today maybe more im not an expert) is deplorable...
Not including the whole launch cost procedure so for sure: it's all bullcrap :)

I think it's just the manufacturing cost, not deployment or development cost.

http://www.newshub.co.nz/home/world/2017/04/extremist-mosques-must-be-closed-french-far-right-leader-marine-le-pen.html

I was shocked when I heard CNN say that Le Pen wanted to close all mosques in France... but then I read what she actually said. It seems like the media bends over backwards to provide nuance in the case of liberals/Democrats, but if a conservative/far-right populist says something, nuance doesn't exist.

That said, I truly hope one of the moderates in the French election wins. Le Pen would be a disaster.

all the more reason to support an extreme right wing swing imo, it'd be a well deserved punishment

I've seen many awkward news articles from CNN, making them a source to be checked.. Sadly.



mostly clickbait

Opinions matter more in the US than in the news I'm familiar with.
