An artist's concept of a Big Eye bomb, an aircraft delivered binary chemical bomb. This is the first weapon to generate a persistent nerve agent from two non-toxic chemicals. These non-toxic agents are shipped and store separately, eliminating the possibility of toxic agent formation prior to a mission requirement. The Big Eye is a joint U.S. Navy-Air Force development program and will be compatible with most Navy and Air Force tactical aircraft
