This was a rotating bomb which dispersed incendiary 'bomblets' as it fell. Used in the 'Winter war', it got its' name from Molotov trying to deny that such weapons were being used, claiming instead that 'breadbaskets' were being dropped on the Finns....
The official designation of the bomb was the 'RRAB', or 'Rasseirajuschtsaja Aviabomba' which I challenge anyone on the Forum to say after having a couple of bottles of Koff Beer from Finland...
