In the event the United States enters the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran, a likely focus will be on degrading or destroying Tehran’s underground facilities that enrich nuclear material. That task would most likely fall to a small number of Air Force strategic bombers that are capable of delivering 30,000-pound precision-guided bombs designed to destroy subterranean targets.
