mark 81 bomb

The Mark 81 (Mk 81) (nicknamed "Firecracker") was the smallest of the Mark 80 series of low-drag general-purpose bombs. Developed for United States military forces in the 1950s, it was first used during the Vietnam War. The power of the Mk 81 was found to be inadequate for U.S. military tactical use, and it was quickly discontinued, although license-built copies or duplicates of this weapon remain in service with various other nations.
