US Strike Plan Against Iran Likely to Begin With B-2 Bombers Targeting Deep Nuclear Sites

If the United States joins the conflict offensively, initial strikes would almost certainly involve B-2 stealth bombers armed with GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrators (MOPs). Each B-2 can carry two MOPs, with prime targets expected to be Iran’s deeply buried nuclear facilities at Fordo and Natanz. Subsequent operations would likely synchronize with the Israeli Air Force to dismantle ballistic missile infrastructure and active Transporter Erector Launchers (TELs), reminiscent of past missile-hunting campaigns. Simultaneously, U.S. forces would heighten defensive measures to intercept Iranian missiles and drones and counter Iranian-backed proxy attacks. While initial objectives focus on infrastructure, broader strikes against leadership and strategic assets may follow, hinting at a potential long-term goal of regime change amid the escalating conflict.
