For me it be the MEPHISTO
>This is similar in concept to the BROACH warhead in Storm Shadow, which uses a precursor charge to punch through hardened structures followed by the main change that can be fuzed for penetration mode when required, meaning it detonates after breaching the target. The MEPHISTO warhead can even be programmed to detonate on a specific pre-selected floor of a given building.
MEPHISTO may be very clever, but a sharpened stick is all my father ever needed so I'll stick with that
We're looking at what amounts to a rocket propelled sharpened metal stick.
>a sharpened stick is all my father ever needed so I'll stick with that
Look at this gay that needs to sharpen his stick, when God already gave us perfectly round stones that don't need to be bubba'd.
were you not getting enough attention in the other thread?
This thread is about penetrating warheads
a warhead that happens to be used in the taurus missle which someone already made a thread about not that long ago...
lmao I just noticed the cross link in the other thread. why are you shilling this?
Ok? We’re not discussing delivery methods itt. You’re actually doing a pretty good job of cluttering up the thread with irrelevant posting. Why is that?
>Why is that?
because I don't like disingenuous homosexuals
GBU-72. This is the US’ free fall bunker buster to replace the MOP.
GBU-72 doesn't replace the MOP, it's just dramatically more practical for 99% of use cases since you can carry it on aircraft other than the B-2 (and B-21?)
How much steel can these things penetrate?
GBU-57 MOP (massive ordinance penetrator). A 30,000 pound monster designed for the b-2 and b-52. Its main purpose is collapsing deep tunnel systems or bunkers. It has been replaced by the 5,000 pound gbu-72 next generation penetrator.
That’s a big bomb
uuuu
Holy shit I get it. The common response is 4u but you just put 4 u’s
bump
Omg. Now it’s 4 (You)s. I really like you
>gets his panties in a twist because of baneposting
Why do some GBU-57 and GBU-75 have a yellow diamond warhead band implying they are flechettes rather than HE/FRAG?
Because they can also be used for area targets on a point detonation setting.
Interesting
Apparently because the casing is some kind of composite with steel fibres

So can pretty much every penetrating weapon, you just alter the delay.
