Re: Helicopter Dropping Barrel Bomb
It took about a minute to drop. You could have left the country by the time it exploded. |

Re: Helicopter Dropping Barrel Bomb
The early versions in Syria used lit fuses and thus had to be carefully timed, otherwise they would fail to explode before breaking apart on the ground or explode too soon in the air. Later models had impact fuses and stabilizing fins which were improved on over time.
