Russian military sources have claimed the deployment of a super-powerful bomb on the Ukrainian city of Vovchansk. According to russian media, the bomb is believed to be the ODAB-9000 vacuum bomb, also referred to as the Father of Kuzka or the Father of all bombs. This weapon is reportedly the most powerful non-nuclear munition in the world, with an explosive power equivalent to 44,000 kg of TNT.
The ODAB-9000 is a thermobaric weapon, meaning it utilizes oxygen from the surrounding air to generate an intense explosion and blast wave, causing widespread destruction over a large area. If true, this would be the first recorded use of the ODAB-9000 in combat.
However, conflicting reports suggest that the bomb dropped on Vovchansk may have been smaller ODAB-1500 thermobaric bomb, which followed failed russian infantry assault. While both bombs are highly destructive, the ODAB-1500 has a significantly lower yield compared to the ODAB-9000.
The exact nature of the weapon used and its impact on the battlefield continue to be subjects of debate
