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").
