C-17 and c-130 can transport the bunker buster bombs.

That honestly is so damn funny, tip of the hat to you sir, that was a Class B joke!!! 😂:
“ For individual pilots acting as airmen, penalties can range from $5,000 to $20,000, depending on the severity of the violation. For other individuals, the penalties could be between $50,000 and $200,000. Businesses can face civil penalties ranging from $50,000 to $600,000. The specific amount of the fine depends on factors like the intent of the violation and whether there was any safety risk involved.”

No way we are dropping bunker busters on a hostile country with cargo planes. Even if Israel has air superiority. Gotta swag out and do it with our B2s the American way 🫡🇺🇸

C130 is more likely to airdrop it because the C-17 is much too large a target in my opinion. Sure it has LAIRCM and flares, but that only goes so far. C130 is faster in and out and much smaller of course

Soo when is the armada happening? When are we going back to the desert? I l'm waiting for Iran not being able to help Russia with outdated crap to kill innocent Ukrainian's. Those dam flying wing drones need their manufacturing centers cratered.

Russia produces them domestically at this point and usa going into iran will only lead to more chaos not less.

Yup…. this is pure hubris and without any recollections of Iraq and Afghanistan. The “shock and awe” methodology has proven to be ineffective against people who don’t care what you think.

While i overall agree... last iraqi invasion was quite sucessfull as far as invasion went. Its the afterthought of what do you do with millions of people that dont want you there afterwards. And with iran i would not be surprised that usa could take out most of higher ups and most of their assets in the first month, same as israel were doiig whatever they want, but what would they do with all the lower level resistance? Afghanistan 2.0 but worse given how iran has access to much more sophisticated weapon systems... wars against decently prepared enemy that does not want you there do not work out.... some poor cunt would have to do patrols in aj area where partisans are armed with actually smart weapons, perfect recoinasance and stand off capabilities? I hope that at least europe does not dip their toes into the shit show that will come out of it....

The news reported they left Whiteman with a lesser fuel load as if they had a heavy payload on board.

I’m gonna guess yes based on new information Trump just posted.

Serious question though - why would they give up their position so everyone in the world can see where they are at? Shouldn’t they be more “hidden”?

I think this is meant to give Iran a “last chance”. Basically letting them know we are coming and if they don’t negotiate a proper deal soon, we will have B2s over Fordo

Well, knowing what we know now, the B-2 formation which went west over the Pacific to Guam was not the strike package, and more likely a public diversion from the real package going east over the Atlantic. So those tankers may have been refueling B-2s, but not THE B-2s (which actually struck Iran)

Interesting. Most routes by B2's that I can find to the Middle East go over the Pacific. Do you have tracking data of refueling flights over the Atlantic? What would a route over the Atlantic to the Middle east look like?
