The U.S. military released color video on Thursday (April 13) taken from a 2003 test drop of the 'mother of all bombs' which was later used in Afghanistan on ISIS targets, in one of the largest non-nuclear devices ever unleashed in combat. <br /> <br />The test drop video shows the massive bomb being released from an airplane over Eglin Air Force Base in Florida and striking an open area, causing a large explosion and billowing smoke. <br /> <br />The 21,600-pound (9,797-kg) GBU-43 bomb, was dropped from an MC-130 aircraft in the Achin district of the eastern province of Nangarhar bordering Pakistan on Friday (April 4) against a network of tunnels that Afghan and U.S. officials said was being used by militants linked to Islamic State.
