No but they will gladly provide Iran with weapons to attack US bases, and possibly station some Nuclear weapons in Iran as a guarantee against Nuclear attack.unfortuantly, if the american decide to join or give them a couple of these bunker busters, and they give the russians advance notice... WELL???? you think russia will declair war with america?
There are many issues with the bunker busters. Firstly only the B2 can carry them, secondly they are gravity bombs, so the B-2's will have to overfly the site. They will be 100% reliant on stealth tech that is now 28 years old. If they are detectable by ANY means (IR, L band radar etc) they are easy targets They are big and slow. You can bet the Russians and Chinese will want to help them shoot one down. Another issue of the bunker buster is they have a blast radius of only 20m in rock, so unless the USA knows the config of the underground facility its very hard to hit the right spot. Also one may not do the trick to penetrate it. So they may have to hit the same spot a few times. Not at all a silver bullet.unfortuantly, if the american decide to join or give them a couple of these bunker busters, and they give the russians advance notice...

This coming from the same country that has threatened the west with Nukes. What a joke.
Your enemey is either going to threaten you with nukes withoutThis coming from the same country that has threatened the west with Nukes. What a joke.
He is just standing up for his buddies.
The US is the only country that has used nukes on civilians.This coming from the same country that has threatened the west with Nukes. What a joke.

Russia has been 100% transparent with its Nuclear Doctrine. So all he is doing is reminding people to fully understand it. Building nukes is in itself a threat. Do you not get that?This coming from the same country that has threatened the west with Nukes. What a joke.

I presume you are talking about the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant.There are many issues with the bunker busters.

Or, the Trump administration of May 2018 and Netanyahoo could have stuck with the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action and we wouldn't be having this discussion.IMO, Israel should have done this (bombing the sit out of Iran) looooooong ago to neuter their ability to create and prolong/intensify conflicts outside of their country. Instead of levelling Gaza. Without Iran, I imagine Hamas would run out of resources. But wtf do I know.
I presume you are talking about the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant.
It is, from reports, about 260 ft below the surface so even the GBU-57 which can only be delivered in the B2 cannot touch it with penetration depth of 200 ft, maybe knock some debris down but not destoy it.
Since the B2 can carry two of these they could theoretically piggy back them, in essense knock a hole in the ground then hit it again in the same spot to try to get to 260 ft.
This has never been tried before but if they did use it they could send three or four planes, this could be an option.
As far a Irans air defense, there is video of Israeli conducting bombing raids in daylight over Iran unimpeded so I doubt an night flight of stealth bombers would have any problems.

That would be something the Israeli airforce could do with their own bunker busters.I don't think the actual centrifuge rooms need to be hit to effect a shutdown of Iran's nuclear program. Just bomb every one of the known entrances, ventilation/HVAC/power structures etc and effectively entomb/seal the main enrichment areas. Will take a fuck of a long time to dig out.
However, these fucking Indian propaganda YouTube videos from Times of India, Hindustan Times etc are just pure fucking garbage. Rarely barely factual, they are as comical as 'This is Steve Jones from Rogers' calls from the Indian scam call centre boiler rooms !![]()
Didn't you know that the cockpit of an F35 has seating for 8?That would be something the Israeli airforce could do with their own bunker busters.
Yeah, those You Tube videos are the same with Russia.
This picture that allegedly the Iranian Foreign ministry released.
Compare plane to size of people and people to size of buildings in lower left.
