I myself would like to see some heads roll.I'm disappointed I didn't see any flying body parts. I prefer the limbs, myself!
And make more, Trump creating more jobs.Try explaining that to a Vetetans widow and her children it wasn't worth it. If it saves one American serviceman's life it was well worth it. It was already bought & paid for and just collecting dust. Send more!
MOAB (mother of all bombs) costs only $170,000.Daisy Cutter (BLU-82) was a 15,000 pound bomb. This one is 21,000 pounds, designed years after the Daisy. The MOAB (massive ordnance air blast) isn't a penetrator but was designed for soft targets. Only fifteen plus two test devices were built, so I guess fourteen remain. These cost $16,000,000. each.
"mother of all bombs" is slang. MOAB stands for Massive Ordnance Air Blast, the actual bomb is called a GBU-43/B. $170,000 is laughable, you don't get a 10+ ton, 30 foot long precision guided weapon for that price. A Hellfire missile with about 19 pounds of explosive costs $60,000 as an example. The McAlester Army Ammunition Plant did indeed charge 16 million each.MOAB (mother of all bombs) costs only $170,000.

Even heavier is the BU-57A/B or Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP), which is a 30,000 pound bomb designed to penetrate deeply before exploding. Though heavier, it has less of the weight in explosives. Boeing built 20 of these for a total of $314,000,000.
If none of our people were killed then it is worth it....$16 million and only reporting 36 killed. It doesn't seem like it was that worth while of a target.
