When Weapons Release Goes Wrong…

This video shows a series of catastrophic incidents caused by a bomb release or tank jettison gone wrong.

If you thought that just dropping an inert weapon during a test to validate a specific platform or procedure was an easy and safe task, you were wrong. Weapons separations involving new aircraft, pylons, tanks or ordnance are always filmed to evaluate and prevent incident like those shown in the video.
