The United States military has possibly killed one, maybe two, terrorists in northwestern Syria in an airstrike with a unique type of bomb which does not detonate like a conventional bomb, but instead explodes with extendable blades for precision and less civilian casualties.
The weapon used was a specialized variant of the Hellfire missile, known as the AGM-114R9X, The Drive reported. Instead of using the warhead found on standard models, it substitutes it for a set of folding sword-like blades for minimum collateral damage and precision.
The 5-foot long, 100-pound missile is nicknamed “Ninja bomb†and “the flying Ginsu,†which is a reference to popular knives sold in the 1970s and 1980s marketed as being capable of cutting through almost anything from trees to vegetables.
