Russian ODAB500 Thermobaric Bomb Shockwave (Music from source)
“Footage of the Russian thermobaric bomb ODAB500. These airborne fuel-air explosive bombs are extremely deadly. They explode in 2 stages, the charge of the first stage spreads an aerosol consisting of very fine material - from carbon fuel to tiny metal particles. The second charge ignites this cloud, creating a fireball, a huge shock wave, and a vacuum that absorbs all the surrounding oxygen”
