New Weaponry And The Latest News

The Air Force just tested a new bomb called a "MOAB." If its power sounds Biblical, that's because the 21,000-pound bomb has the power of a small nuclear weapon. The MOAB is but one new device that might be used if we go to war with Iraq. Other new military weaponry include electro-obstacles, urban robotics, improved optics, UAV drones and much more. Joining host Larry Mantle is Hal Kempfer, a military analyst for ABC 7 News and a Reserve Marine Lt. Colonel, Ben Works, Executive Director of the Strategic Issues Research Institute, an independent think tank in Washington, D. C., and the principal radio analyst for ABC Radio, and "GI" Wilson, a retired Infantry Colonel in the USMC.
