U.S. B-2 Bombers Carried Out Another Successful Strike on Iranian Ballistic Missile Sites

As the U.S.-Israel-led strikes against Iran continue into their second day, the scope and breadth of the first wave are overwhelming. In the first 12 hours, nearly 1,000 airstrikes were carried out from land, air, and sea, including drones.

The strikes have decapitated the Iranian leadership, killing the Ayatollah Khamenei and former President Ahmadinejad.

This includes four B-2 bombers, which dropped dozens of 2,000-pound penetrator bombs targeting underground Iranian ballistic missile facilities.

Those B-2s departed from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri, the same base from which the attacks on the Fordow nuclear site were launched last summer.

It's an 18-hour trip one-way, and the B-2s refueled en-route to Iran. They have since returned to the U.S.
