Was just wondering if there was any difference in extra protective gear etc....
The size of the explosion if you are foolhardy enough to be within 50ms of it that would be pretty good protective gear. Best thing lay on your back & watch the fireworks as rounds cook off & fly overhead. Now check you are still in one piece if some what deaf.

I'm reminded of that scence in the new Ironman movie where he blows up the munitions dump and exits via a vertical "jump" of what looks to be well over a hundred feet. Cool scence. He would have gotten baked alive in that heat thought.

Ironman? Great idea! Let's give the engineers an armor rating!
BTW why don't you try to sell the idea to the Pentagon!!!!!

I miss the good old days where you could para drop an arms canister (or ammo truck) and get MOAB level explosions. Of course back then blast area was either smaller or gave less damage. I tried loading ammo trucks in the lead aircraft of a para drop to see what happened when they took a flak hit, but I never got that to happen.
