Micha,
How much do You expect Hushs to be to knock through the whole of the defences (it's cheaper to put up 50% hush and last LBUs to put out the whole planet out, than it's with bare hushes).
I can't grind my assumptions on calculations, couse I've lost my original Posey's spreadsheet and the new one isn't capable of calculating the bombing accurately (however that word is spelled), but I still remember that ~900 Cherry bombs were needed to bomb out a single world with full defences out in a single year.

One H-a-b costs me at max tech:
1kT iron
2kT bor
no germ
2 resources
weighs 5kT
kills 3.0% of the pop
destroys 2 buildings
The LBU-74 (latest model):
1kT iron
18kT bor
7kT germ
8 resources
weighs 45kT
kills 0.4% of the pop
destroys 45 buildings
Cherry:
1kT
13kT
no germ
6 resources
weighs 52kT
kills 2.5% of the pop
destroys 10 buildings
I don't have the sheet at hand, but these are the numbers I wrote down one day ...
Hush-a-boom:
1.100.000 people planet with:
100 neutron defences need 101 B-52s
100 planetary defences need 44 B-52s
100 laser defences need 24 B-52s
100 missile defences need 15 B-52s
Cherry:
100 planetary defences need 53 B-52s (848 bombs)
The H-a-b (a lot) costs less, kills more cols, kills LESS instalations (very important) and weighs less (gate-able, others are NOT, unless with mini bombers or B-8.5s, which means they cost more per bomb, and yes yes IT too).
The major point with H-a-b is that they let you take planets almost intact in one year at a very good price! So do not start mixing them with LBUs! 
And they're nicely gate-able, like I said before: one of the best things you can get from the MT!
(Not going further in detail here, that would require a bit more math ... but I think you'll get the point ...)
regards,
mch
