    Well, bombs are MUCH bigger now. Of course, using fewer larger bombs creates MUCH more ejecta than more smaller bombs.

      That’s true, but crater width doesn’t scale linearly with bomb yield so I don’t think you could get it down to a dozen even with the largest bombs we have available today.

        That’s true. But that’s very much the least of the problems with this moronic idea. Newt would give zero fucks about making it 1200 bombs instead of 12.
