The most recent use of cluster munitions that I recall was the IDF in 2006 that got a whole lot of people wound up, during the fight on their northern border with Hezbollah.
THe US retains the cluster bomb in its inventory, and for those situations where it fits.
Mary Wareham can go and suck a fart.
The conventional munitions I saw used from the Air (this is PPRuNe, not Artillery R Us) did not include cluster munitions.
If there have been cluster munitions used by US forces vs ISIS/Deash/Various Al Qaeda friends since the 2010 withdrawal from Iraq, I'd like to see evidence of it.
Are cluster bombs allowed under the US constitution second amendment? After all, they are just "arms".
