US redeploys B-2 bombers towards Iran

The Israelis reported in the morning that there were two planes, but in the afternoon (Kyiv time) Fox News journalists clarified that there were six planes.

The media clearly link this move to US preparations for possible strikes on bunker-type facilities in Iran, for which the Israeli combat aircraft lack the capabilities of their own. In particular, on Iran's nuclear facility in Fordow.

According to the OSINT project Aircraft Spots, the bombers departed from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri in two groups — MYTEE11 FLT and MYTEE21 FLT.

Aircraft of this type are currently the only carriers of the super-heavy anti-bunker bomb GBU-57 MOP (Massive Ordnance Penetrator), which is considered the most powerful non-nuclear bomb in the world.

The bomb has a mass of 13,600 kg, of which 2,423 kg is the warhead. It is capable of hitting underground targets at depths of over 60 m.
