500-1000lb class weapons dropped from an aircraft with an air-burst fuse would leave little or no crater but with a large blast radius. Has this been considered and/or discounted already?

All I see is a few burnt out cars. There is a bit of impact damage to the road surface but none of the major structural damage you'd expect from a bomb exploding nearby. Even the flimsy solar panel arrays are unscathed. I'd say it fits completely with a misfiring rocket hitting the car park and starting a fire with its propellant.
