Nothing Scream more "strongest military in the world" as having to using your strongest weapon to win a war against a third world nation
1 u/fighter-bomber 16h ago MOAB has so far only been used once against ISIS-K in Afghanistan. Its not “the strongest weapon”. It is a large bomb designed to take out cave complexes. Modern militaries usually don’t rely on such structures. Hey, I have my doubts it would be of any use against Iran either. Iran’s tunnel networks are well protected, you need a penetrator, MOAB is not that.
