Fun video.

I was once at a demo for a Daisy Cutter, a Vietnam era bomb used for clearing LZs, Landing Zones. We were on a mountain top in the West Desert of Utah. The distance was so far it took 17 seconds for the "Boom" to reach us.

BLU-82, Daisy Cutter

They're all RPV's. It's cheaper to not lose instrumentation every time by placing it in the truck and have the target be inert.

Ammo builds the bombs up, runs the bomb dump, etc. Weapons loads the bombs and bullets on the aircraft. But we all know, that without maintenance, nothing flies to deliver bombs and bullets. Ammo can suck it!
