They blow holes in the surface and holes in the repair crews.

However the point was to take out the runways without a lot of CD, and what cluster munitions are best at is causing wide spread damage--thus the treaty.
As to "link!": No. And if you are as informed as you imply you are, you know why.

For the most part, the holes they put in the surface are irritants more than problems. Some planes don't even need them to be fixed.
As to repair crews, yes, that was exactly what i was referring to. But because they are effective against humans, and disperced over wide areas--often with little percision--the CD issue is significant. And the reason for the treaty issue.
So, to actually shut down airfields for extended periods with limited CD, cluster munitions are not a weapon if choice.

So it looks like winter storm Niko shut down more takeoffs and landings than 59 tomahawks.

You'd be a lyin' lib-retard, you Mussulman-luvin, Hitler worshipping, lying, hypocritical, racist, cum-gobbling golem fucktard, HDDB, DEM. Twenty some of Assad's $11 million dollar planes will not take off today ... tomorrow ... or anytime in the future, you Mussulman-luvin, Hitler worshipping, lying, hypocritical, racist, cum-gobbling golem fucktard, HDDB, DEM. You're intellectually unable to count how high the number of sorties that will never happen will be, you Mussulman-luvin, Hitler worshipping, lying, hypocritical, racist, cum-gobbling golem fucktard, HDDB, DEM.
