    Air Force Gets New Bomb

    Here ya go, Joe!

    Enemies of the United States will never be able to use bad weather to hide again.

    StormBreaker is a new bomb that can seek out targets in spite of bad weather in the battlespace.

    Not only does it reign over all weather, around the clock…it can hunt bad guys when they are on the move or trying to escape in vehicles.

    This U.S. Air Force program will give American fighters the crucial advantage of being able to precisely strike when others cannot. Made by Raytheon, the bomb is fired from fighter jets thousands of feet up, and penetrates bad weather to attack moving and stationary targets on the ground.

    The F-15E Strike Eagles are the first to receive the revolutionary bomb. The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter and F/A 18E/F Super Hornets are next to be armed with these bad boys.

    I'm ecstatic! A better kid you won't find, I'm hoping they work some of the lazy out of him though.
