Tritonal Tritonal

Tritonal - Definition and Overview

Tritonal is a mixture of 80% TNT and 20% aluminum powder, used in several types of ordnance. It is used perhaps most notably in the Massive Ordinance Air Blast Bomb (nicknamed the Mother of all Bombs) or MOAB, the largest non-nuclear weapon in the US miltary arsenal, surpassing the explosive power of even a fuel-air explosive bomb.
