The Tallboy Bomb – Precision Over Destruction During World War II, the RAF deployed a unique weapon: the Tallboy. Not an area bomb, but an earthquake bomb. Weighing over 5 tons, it penetrated deep into the ground before detonating. The resulting shockwaves collapsed bunkers, tunnels, viaducts, and massive concrete structures often without a direct hit. Designed to destroy targets considered “indestructible.” A weapon that proved one thing: 👉 Depth and precision can be deadlier than sheer force.
