Nastavlja se `saga` o teskasima bolje reci super -teskasima medju avio- bombama .
U tu grupu se moze svrsatati i nova americka MOAB ( vec ima svoju temu ,tj vise njih ... )
 http://www.mycity-military.com/Vazduhoplovno-naoru.....-MOAB.html
http://www.mycity-military.com/Vazduhoplovno-naoru.....a-MOP.html
Razliciti izvori daju razlicite podatke o njenoj masi ( od 9500kg ,10600 do cak 13600kg ) ,uz nju mozemo svrstati i novu rusku takodje identicnu po nacinu dejstva (mase navodno oko 7 t ) .

No svima njima je predhodnik bila bomba poznata kao zemljotresna ,izuzetno razornog dejstva i efekta koje je proizvodila i jos po necemu .... gotovo je probijala zvucni zid u propadanju ( 320m/s ) .
U pitanju je cuvena `Grand Slam` proizvod poznatog naucnika Barnsa Volisa .O njegovim izumima tj bombama/ supre bombama / imamo u ovom clanku ,poznate skakajuce bombe `Upkeep` `Highball` , 5 tona teske `Tallboy` i naravno ogromna 10 tona teska `Grand Slam` .
Citat:During the Second World War, attacking heavily protected targets like U-boat pens and protected “V-weapon” facilities was a key challenge. Enter a brilliant British engineer named Barnes Wallis, fresh off the dam-busting “Upkeep” bouncing bomb. His next trick was a 12,000 pound weapon called the “Tallboy external link,” a streamlined, spin-stabilized bomb with a claimed terminal velocity of Mach 1 external link when dropped from 20,000 feet. That mass, carrying 5,200 pounds of Torpex D1 explosive, made a crater 80 feet deep x 100 feet across when it hit. By 1945, Wallis’ next “Earthquake bomb” was in production – the 22,000 pound “Grand Slam external link.” His creations made short work of U-boat pens .

The Big Bombs - Grand Slam
Citat:The Grand Slam was a 22,000 lb (10,000 kg) earthquake bomb used by RAF Bomber Command against strategic targets during the Second World War.
Known officially as the Bomb, Medium Capacity, 22,000 lb, it was a scaled-up version of the Tallboy bomb and closer to the original size that the bombs' inventor, Barnes Wallis, had envisaged when he first developed his earthquake bomb idea. It was also nicknamed "Ten ton Tess" .After release from the Avro Lancaster B.Mk 1 (Special) bomber,[2] the Grand Slam would reach near-supersonic speed, approaching 1,049 ft/s (715 mph) - (320 m/s, 1150 km/h), and penetrate deep underground, with the explosion causing a camouflet[9] (cavern) and shifting the ground to undermine a target's foundation.
Uvodne podatke o njoj dao je kolega ljubasav na stranici teme o GBU-43/B MOAB.
Citat:A Royal Air Force Avro Lancaster B Mark I (Special) (PB996 'YZ-C') of No. 617 Squadron RAF, flown by Flying Officer P. Martin and crew, releasing a 22,000-lb (10,000 kg) MC deep-penetration bomb (Bomber Command executive codeword 'Grand Slam') over the viaduct at Arnsberg, Germany. The viaduct was attacked on 15 March with one bomb in poor weather, with no hits. It was destroyed four days later, using 6 "Grand Slam" and 13 "Tallboy" bombs.

Tokom ratnih operacija vodjenih u 1945 g baceno je 42 Grand Slam bombe a koristene su i nakon zavrsetka 2 SR i to ovako
Citat:By the end of the war, 42 Grand Slams had been dropped on active service.Beginning in March 1946, Project Ruby was a joint, Anglo–American project to investigate the use of penetration bombs against heavily–protected, concrete targets. The target selected was the Valentin submarine pens, that had been rendered unusable and abandoned since 617 Squadron's attack on 27 March 1945. Grand Slams were carried by Lancasters from No. 15 Squadron RAF and US Boeing B-29 Superfortress. Around 140 sorties were flown, testing a range of different bombs.
Listu borbenih misija u kojima su koristene ove super bombe imamo na
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Slam_bomb
Medjutim tu nije kraj ovim super teskasima ,naime Ameri su nakon 2 SR napravili jos jednu bombetinu i to cak dvostruku tezu od `Grand Slam` ( i od njihove kopije iste M110 T-14 mase 10 t / 22000lb / ) a u pitanju je
T-12 zvana `Cloudmaker` mase citavih 20 tona ! / 43600lb /
Citat:The T-12 (also known as Cloudmaker) demolition bomb was developed by the United States from 1944 to 1948. It was one of a small class of bombs designed to attack targets invulnerable to conventional "soft" bombs, such as bunkers and viaducts. It achieved this by having an extremely thick hardened nose section, which was designed to penetrate deeply into hardened concrete structures and then detonate inside the target after a short time delay. This created an "earthquake effect".
The T-12 was a further development of the concept initiated with the United Kingdom's Tallboy and Grand Slam weapons: a hardened, highly aerodynamic bomb of the greatest possible weight designed to be dropped from the highest possible altitude. Penetrating deeply in the earth before exploding, the resulting shock wave was transmitted through the earth into structures. The resulting camouflet could also undermine structures. The bomb could also be used against hardened targets.
Originally set to meet a 42,000 lb (19,000 kg) target weight (the maximum payload for the Convair B-36 "Peacemaker" bomber), the original design with its hardened case was slightly less than 43,000 pounds. The final T-12 weighed 43,600 lb (nearly 20 metric tons). This was twice the size of the United States' previous largest bomb, the Bomb, GP, 22,000-lb, M110 (T-14), the American-built version of the British Grand Slam. The T-12 was not a simple scale up of the M110, but incorporated modifications based on testing and calculations. The B-36 was redesigned so it could carry the T12, although a converted B-29 Superfortress was used for testing.
