From the reading I've done, this is the big brother of the Daisy Cutter bomb used during the Vietnam War and recently our "Spelunking" expedition in Afghanistan.

Understandably, there will be auxillary casualties during any type of military activity. (Yes, innocent people will die....it's not excusable, but it happens) However, what I am wondering, is would we actually USE something like this in active warfare, or was this more an exercise in indimidation?

Disarm, or we'll steal your oxygen?
