Wiki claims a payload of 14,000-28,000 lb, but that number isn't actually stated in the article cited as a source.Just to freak people out further, the comment cited in Wiki about LRS-B and MOP is that the Air Force needs a weapon with the penetrating power of the MOP but about a third the weight so that "it can be carried in an aircraft we can afford to build," according to Deputy CoS Breedlove in 2010. So that works out to a LRS-B payload of about 5 tons, right? ;DOr not. I wouldn't read that too closely; it could imply that you need LRS-B to carry two of them, or that it needs to fit tactical aircraft as well as bombers, etc.
