Well shit.
What the fuck is a GRAVITY BOMB???
Simply means it is a free-fall bomb. They are cheaper to make as they don't require an entire ICBM to deliver.
nah bro, it's a black hole bomb that destroys the solar system.
Just a bomb that is dropped from storage to fall in free-fall. Aka, a bomb with literally nothing else, the simplest possible bomb. An alternative name (which is better imo) is a "Dumb Bomb".
Gravity bomb just sounds so much more extraordinary than it actually is.
