ABSTRACT:
A fuel-air type bomb which contains a liquid fuel normally non-explosive, with a bursting charge centrally located within the fuel; the bursting charge, upon firing, shocks the fuel into a highly reactive mixture with the surrounding air while simultaneously disseminating the fuel at a supersonic rate over a large area, which causes increasing blast effects.
