Called “Midnight Hammer”, the American operation having targeted three Iranian nuclear sites required major military coordination. More than a hundred devices have been mobilized to carry out this major mission.

The Americans baptized her The “Midnight Hammer” operation, the midnight hammer. Here’s how the United States has dropped fourteen anti-bunker bombs on Iran. Fondable weapons, used for the first time in real conditions. B2 furtive bombers take off from the Whiteman base in the Missouri on Saturday in the early morning. Some of them go to the Pacific Ocean. They are lures. Seven other bombers take the direction of Iran.

To make 18 hours of flight while escaping the radars, several supply planes are positioned on the route. The squadron fly over the Mediterranean, but not Europe. On board, GBU-57 bombs, 13-ton devices nicknamed “the bombs that pierce the mountains”. They are able to deeply enter the rock and concrete before exploding. It is midnight in France when the bombers enter the Iranian space, preceded by hunting aircraft in scouts. The B2 drop their bombs on the Fordo and Natanz sites. About twenty Tomahawk missiles, previously launched by a submarine in the Indian Ocean, reach the Ispahan site. In all, 125 aircraft were engaged in this American raid.
