For the most part I'd say that's a qualified false. Great expense goes into making weapons very discriminate. Guided precision weapons have done more to reduce collateral damage than about anything I can think of. The R9X was created without an explosive payload of any kind for the actual purpose of reducing harm outside the intended target.
Anyway outside of total war "indiscriminate" weapons are largely inefficient ones.
Don't know if this report is true or not, but sending your boys to certain death or killing them yourself if they return, is probably not the best strategy when you're struggling with manpower.
B1B dropped the bomb on it. Funny thing, it didnt destroy it because it hit the armor plating around the rotors. I remember seeing all the classified equipment in tack on CNN..
