US B-2 bombers hit Iranian missile sites in Operation Epic Fury

Washington: The US has used B-2 bombers to attack Iran. These American bombers dropped dozens of 2,000-pound bombs on Iran. The main target of these attacks was Iran's missile stockpiles. A US defense official confirmed this to Fox News. He stated that four B-2 Spirit stealth bombers flew a round-trip from the US and dropped dozens of 2,000-pound bombs on underground ballistic missile sites in Iran.

B-2 bombers dropped 2,000-pound bombs

In Operation Epic Fury, four B-2 bombers dropped 2,000-pound bombs. These are GBU-31 Joint Direct Attack Munitions, the GPS-guided workhorse of American airpower since Kosovo in 1999. A single B-2 can carry sixteen of these. Four B-2s can carry 64 GBU-31 bombs. The difference between a 30,000-pound bunker buster and a 2,000-pound JDAM is not a matter of degree. They are used for different missions.

Last night, American B-2 stealth bombers equipped with 2,000-pound bombs attacked Iran's fortified ballistic missile facilities. No country should ever doubt America's intentions.

Several Iranian missile sites destroyed

Strikes by four B-2 bombers with GBU-31 bombs destroyed Iran's ballistic missile infrastructure at shallow hardened sites. The United States and Israel have already blocked Iran's path to nuclear weapons development. Now, with new strikes, they have eliminated Iran's ability to launch conventional retaliatory strikes. Iran no longer has much of a counter-attack capability.
