I don't know, AFX-757 doesn't have the same..."ring" to it. Tritonal just rolls off the tounge.

If you didn't see my previous posting here are the photos for the new formulation. The left one is a detonation of a Mk 84, the right one is a 1000lb bomb filled with the new formulation.
What's interesting is that there is bad depth perception and they look like they cover miles around.
I'm guessing that the detonation on the right covers at most 225-250' acrosss(Your best guess). Talk about a destructive radius(YIKES)!

As the developments in weaponry science evolve, the lethality of the weapons are exceptionaly becoming more and more lethal<img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>.

Can you imagine one going off inside a Complex!!!??.
Talk about over pressure!
Instead of BDA showing one small hole on the top of the rooof on of these "uber-structures", you might just see a smoking ruin.

Can anyone else guess what distance the "fireball" covers? This is definitely not a weapon for CAS!!

I'll guess about a 150m diameter region on the fireball- triple that for the lethal radius...

But that is just a guess...
