Quote: An FAB-500 is a heavy-duty, unguided, high-explosive bomb carrying 300 kg of explosives. It could have destroyed the whole building, but fortunately it didn't work. Quote
A 300 kg bomb is a little larger than a US MK-81 500 lb bomb. There is no doubt that it would do great harm but to flatten a city block sized building is nonsense. Back in the 1970?s a lot of larger bombs went off aboard the USS Forestal and did not come close to sinking it.
Quote: A total of ten bombs exploded during the fire. Bodies and debris were hurled as far as the bow of the ship. In less than five minutes, seven or eight 1,000-pound bombs, one 750-pound bomb, one 500-pound (227 kg) bomb, and several missile and rocket warheads heated by the fire exploded with varying degrees of violence.
