Actually, it's vaporization/thermobaric bomb. Despite being WMD, the thing is just harmless in space (Lilia is just unhinged at that point).
Wow really!? I'm floored, the vaporization bombs in 08th MS Team were so insanely destructive in their area of effect I'm surprised the mcguffin from Gundam Legacy is small enough to fit on a sturm faust rocket. :lol:
In real life, thermobaric bomb uses the oxygen from the surrounding to generate the blast. And space doesnt have much oxygen.

Ofc thats how real life worlds. Gundam, as we know, may not always follow real-life science.

Oh it makes perfect sense a thermobaric bomb wouldn't work in space. I'm just surprised since the warhead on the sturm faust is fairly small, proportionally I'd guess its no more than 3 meters; I don't think a thermobaric bomb that size would cause the same devastation we see in 08th MS Team.
