It's twice as massive (500kg) as the FAB-250.
*Edited for accuracy.
500kg is total mass, typically explosive is about half of that. this goes for all large air-dropped general purpose bombs (ie not bunker busters, not thermobaric and some others)
this thing right there looks suspiciously like FAB-500 M-62, which has about 200kg of fill (russian clone of torpex)
Thank you for the correction.
