While by number of casualties that may be correct a single military grade bomb can be something as small as a claymore on the onehand to as big as a MOAB which is designed to be the size of explosive as a small nuke without the nuclear fallout.
fair but I’d argue that targeting civilian infrastructure via terrorism is actually more effective in terms of disruption to targeting military targets.
I think that happened during the troubles didn’t it?
Most recently, 2005 Wikipedia
Actually 2017

There’s quite a bit of difference between an IED in a bucket and a bomb from a military aircraft.
how would you charactize the difference?
Military hardware causes way more destruction.
You are confusing bombs for air strikes.Air dropped bombs account for 2% of war casualties 2015-2024, IEDs 21%, air strikes 45%.
The average deaths from any explosive ordinance is roughly 20 per “event” which may include multiple detonations and mixed ordinance.

the moab in 2017 killed 97 people. Not drastically far from ~20
Casualties aren’t the only factor here.
