Description

The Grand Slam was a 22,000 lb (9,980 kg) earthquake bomb used by RAF Bomber Command against strategic targets during the Second World War.
It was a scaled up version of the Tallboy bomb and closer to the original size that the bomb inventor Barnes Wallis had envisioned when he first developed his earthquake bomb idea.
