This is a nice summary of the potential:
"1: Laser guided and parachuted down onto the Crossroads of The World, the MOAB would technically explode as an airburst weapon, albeit from six-feet and not thousands, like a nuclear bomb.
The fireball radius would be 300-feet, incinerating every person and obliterating Times Square's famous jumbotrons and billboards.
2: As the bomb ignites the alumimum dust and nearly 19,000 pounds of explosives a shock wave sucks the air from another 160-feet of prime Manhattan real estate and destroying Broadway. Concrete buildings are severely damaged and fatalities are also close to 100 percent here.
3: The dissapated air blast continues on for another 300-feet, damaging more residential buildings and causing injury to anyone caught up in the blast and more fatalities.
4: People up to 330-feet away from Ground Zero would suffer 3rd degree burns and some would suffer the loss of their limbs."
I'd love to see the
full damage report, but of course, it's classified and such...
