Are there any other new explosives being researched, which are on or above this level ? If so please leave a link.

what the hell??? I didn't find a damn thing about cl-20 on that page.

Please provide an accurate link.

it's in the energetics division of thiokol. It doesn't give much of a description of cl-20 though. There are a few papers on the web dealing with cl-20. If I have time I will find and post them.

Thanks!

This page gives the most detailed description of CL-20 and it's future.
