What does most of the damage in a bomb? The actual explosion/fireball or the shockwave?
In: 22
If you talk about high explosive the shockwave is what is produced from the high explosive reacting is the shock wave. So asking it is the explosion or the shockwave is like asking if when someone hit you with their fist in the head if it was the hit or the fist impacting you head that hurt?
You are missing common bomb damage, that is fragmentation and other stuff that move quickly as a result of the explosion. Bombs dropped by aircraft ofter are by weight 50% explosives and 50% the metal casing that will be broken apart and thrown out at high speeds and fragments are ready at a longer distance than the shockwave.
