Israel requires a 15-ton bunker buster bomb to destroy the final, untouched nuclear facility located in Iran.
According to reports from local media outlets, America solely has one, and that’s why Israel happens to be looking at them for assistance.
Such a powerful one, this is the world’s biggest non-nuclear bomb in America’s arsenal. It’s needed because the target, which is the Fordow fuel enrichment plant, is built some 300 feet inside the mountain near the city of Qom, which is two hours south of Tehran.
The heavyweight explosive is known as a GBU-57A/B Massive Ordinance Penetrator and was curated by Boeing for the US Air Force.
It comprises a giant weight, which means it can only be delivered using the B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber, which is a jet that Israel’s Air Force does not have right now.
Fears grow around the world of a possible World War as Iran has refused to sit down with the US and take part in a nuclear deal. If that’s not enough, many are now talking about how this might lead to a lot more loss of life as the US has given Iran 48 hours with hints of a possible US military strike.
