US Delivers Crushing Blow: B-2 Bombers Target Iran’s Underground Missile Complex in Qods
In the latest phase of Operation Epic Fury, reports indicate that American B‑2 Spirit stealth bombers carried out a precision strike against a deeply buried missile production complex in Qods, central Iran. The facility was reportedly linked to the manufacturing of the Khorramshahr‑4 ballistic missile, one of Iran’s longest-range conventional weapons operated by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
The strike is believed to have used the GBU‑57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator, the United States’ most powerful bunker-busting bomb. Weighing around 13.6 tons, the weapon is specifically designed to penetrate dozens of meters of rock and reinforced concrete before detonating, making it one of the few conventional munitions capable of destroying hardened underground facilities.
Deployed from the long-range stealth B-2 Spirit, developed by Northrop Grumman, the attack highlights the aircraft’s unique capability to infiltrate heavily defended airspace. With advanced radar-evading design and intercontinental range, the bomber can deliver precision strikes against high-value strategic targets that are otherwise extremely difficult to reach.
Footage circulating online reportedly shows multiple heavy impacts followed by massive explosions across the mountainous terrain surrounding the facility—signatures consistent with deep-penetration munitions striking underground infrastructure.
If confirmed, the destruction of this site would represent a major blow to Iran’s missile production network. Combined with earlier strikes on air defenses, command centers, and military facilities, such operations could significantly disrupt Tehran’s ability to maintain or rapidly rebuild its long-range missile arsenal.
