Explosions are awesome, though there is always the problem of what it's going to do to FR especially when the all to common lanc-stuka comes in carpet bombing 10,000+ with of ord.

It would just make bombing even more fun, instead of a little circle showing up from a bomb drop.

Strange thing is the film you showed is some of the most unrealistic bomb explosions I have seen, more like the typical Hollywood gas bomb explosion.

Lol, those bombs seem less realistic than the AH ones, but I would like to see some sweet 'splosions, +1.

I think Dimwooo in the comments section pretty much accurately described how those explosions looked.

These are what the explosions would really look like.
