This is coolbert:
"A thermobaric weapon, also called an aerosol bomb, or a vacuum bomb, is a type of explosive that uses oxygen from the surrounding air to generate a high-temperature explosion. The fuel–air explosive is one of the best-known types of thermobaric weapons."
Vlad of Russia and the Russian in particular greatly fond of the grandiose weapon of prodigious size and destructive power. This however not exactly what I thought it was.
From | Radar Online | Story by Joshua Wilburn •
"Russian President Vladimir Putin has revealed a new unmanned drone equipped with thermobaric weaponry, which poses a significant threat to targets, leaving their enemies with limited options to defend against it, RadarOnline.com has learned."
[....]
"The drone, designed and built specifically to obliterate individual objects, reportedly comes in two sizes – 2kg and 4kg [four pounds/eight pounds]. This type of weapon is particularly effective against targets inside buildings and fortifications, as it leaves nowhere to hide."
My instantaneous thought was the Russian military now had a kamikaze-like drone able to deliver an enormous thermobaric warhead on target. But this is not so. Rather a mini-drone able to deliver on target an explosive of relatively small but nonetheless lethal nature.
