The bomblets were dropped on industrial installations. The intent was for the hardened steel projectiles to destroy machinery and production lines by jamming moving parts and severing electrical distribution without explosive demolition of the facility. A well intentioned attempt to preserve some buildings and infrastructure without leveling the city. Not sure how well it worked. I have one squirreled away someplace but it would probably take me a day to find it...I paid 5 cents for it at a flea market.
