United States
The United States has developed bombers capable of dropping up to 900 thousand bombs a day with tree seedlings to restore forests.
The claims about US bombers dropping tree seedlings for reforestation purposes are not well-supported by the available evidence. No credible sources were found to corroborate the existence of such a program in the United States. Moreover, the concept of 'seed bombing' is implemented in other countries like Thailand and Kenya, but without the specifics or the scale described in the claims. As a result, these claims are determined to be false.

The United States has developed a weapon with bombers that can drop up to 900 thousand bombs a day with tree seedlings.
No evidence supports the claim that the United States has developed bombers to drop tree seedlings on a massive scale. The concept of seed bombing exists but is not used by US military bombers. Sources on the web talk about military bombers for other purposes unrelated to reforestation.

Environment
The bombers' task is to restore forests.
While aerial reforestation techniques are used in some countries, there's no evidence the US military employs bombers for reforestation. These methods are more plausibly linked to environmental organizations or smaller-scale civilian projects rather than military operations.
