The Russian Father Of All Bombs, the FOAB, is the most powerful conventional explosive device ever detonated.
It is claimed to be four times as powerful as the MOAB, but due to the unreliability of Russian sources estimates range from half again as powerful as the MOAB.
@TheMrJake I misspelled it but it's still the correct acronym. It's not mother of all bombs.
And the most powerful explosive ever detonated, (non conventional?) is the Tsar Bomba, which burned 10 times as bright as the sun when detonated and had approximately 1.4% of the energy of the sun. The more you know.
@JoKeRpRiNcE2 This reply never showed in my inbox...hmm. Anyways, I know that, I just think Mother Of All Bombs sound better, because when enemy troops see it, they won't yell "LOOK! IT'S A MASSIVE ORDINANCE AIR BLAST BOMB! RUN!" It would be more logical to say MOAB or "It's THE MOTHER OF ALL BOMBS! RUN!"
I'm a military type guy, I can assure you anything about the military.
@Angryprometheus Your country is so stupid, you elected Berlusconi several times over, despite him being the worst thing that happened to Italy since Mussolini.
i did 3 weeks to get the moab i was so happy, i placed it in a truck and i vaporished with the nano rifle and it didn't explode D: i was totaly mad D:::::::
the best way to blow up either of the two suepr bridges, is to use this mother of all bombs or the nano rifle, i think nano rifle is more fun because it just falls everywhere, and the rifle vaporizes everything, while the explosives cannot take apart the bridge structure
You get it unlocked after freeing Oasis i believe I LOVE IT, i once was going on a raid in a car, but i drove off the edge into a pit on accident XD, but then i got out and used the jet pack to get away but the 3 other people fell to their death XD, they got out as the car was fallingXDXDXD.
thats great but its better to use the moab on the edf supply bridge its took me 20 min to destroy that thing withought the moab with it it took 0.5 sec.....fireworks baby
Well, i wish i've decided not to watch that little "spoiler" now i'm not that excited to find my third radio tag -.-
but awesome game, it's just so much fun destroying the buildings, but why not the environment, a little disappointing. but okay off topic spam, sorry :P
i just goy my first 3 radio tags today, after beating the game lol, but anyway i kind of expected something a little more use ful that a bloody car bomb like 2000 salvage or some kind of unique weapon or something really cool :(
well i only got one...and its some women talking about stuff...but idk where they would be and im too lazy to look for them all over the map...btw wuts the point of those tags if u know?
i suppose so but still when i saw the word MOAB after getting my first radio tag i thought "OMG a nuclear/maob rocket launcher :D" but then i got 2 more and was very dissapointed...
Yeah :( But like i said in the video the blast looks small but isnt because it is very destructive because it can destroy any structure minus the invincible bridges/ground
Hi, i looked at the vid and though u were just playing a Mercenaires 2 vid but when i watched it im like "HOLY COW, thats awsome" Cuz see i just started playing the game and shit, i just got in the badlands and i was wondering how u get the MOAB?
Ok, around the world of Mars there are things called "Radio Tags" they look like small glowing yellow balls, every time you pick three up a MOAB will appear on the map.
Ha, i spent ages finding the thingys for the MOAB then i thought hmm how to destroy it? So i used the Nano rifle on it and disintegrated the bomb, meaning no explosion!
So this was the first time ive actually seen one in action- i was inpressed!
wow we turned a video game video into a discussion about moabs and what not, wow
