I will start this off with hopes of some
additions or deletions by others:
        22,000 lb. Grand Slam (aero-dynamic)
        12,000 lb. Tall Boy (aero-dynamic)
          4,000 lb.  Cookie  ( non-aero-dynamic like an oil barrel).
          8,000 lb.                ( non-aero-dynamic like a double oil 
barrel )
        10,000 lb. Upkeep  ( large barrel shaped drum for dams raid).
          2,000 lb.                ( aero-dynamic).
                          Variety of other weights down to the 40lb. 
incediary.
        12,000 lb.                ( non-aerodynamic like the "cookie").
