Biggest German Bomb in WW2?

BTW - how big were the sea mines dropped by parachute as
'blockbusters'?

The Germans used the LMA and LMB Minenbomben:

On this German page is a range of German bombs and you can clearly see
the LMB mine fitted with bomb fins and the last one the BM 1000
"Monika". The Germans also had a LMB IV that was intended for the
Me-264 but I don't think it was ever used as the Me-264 was lost. It
is noteworthy that this weapon would have been used against the US
eastern seaboard by the Me-264.

p.s. The LMB IV weighed 2,380 lbs with 2,006 lb of Amatol 39.

Compared to Allied forces, what was the max they fielded? My
understanding is they lacked heavy bombers.

What does this have to do with Bush's TANG service (or lack thereof) or
Kerry's Purple Hearts? Let's try to stay on topic.

After all the great replies this brought a smile to my face............I
must admit I really hate it when a NG is invaded this way by posts that
should appear in alt.politics or something similar.
