The U.S. Military Just UNLEASHED HELL On Iran's Underground Bunkers

On June 21, 2025, seven B-2 stealth bombers took off from Missouri in silence. 18 hours later, they dropped 14 of the most powerful conventional bombs ever built — the GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator — on Iran's most heavily fortified underground nuclear facilities. The weapon had never been used in combat before. The targets had been considered unreachable for decades. In 25 minutes, everything changed. In this video I break down exactly what happened during Operation Midnight Hammer — the targets, the weapons, the 18-hour flight, the deception operation, the SEAD package, and what it all means for Iran's nuclear program and the future of American airpower. I'm Ryan — former F-15E combat pilot, F-16 Thunderbird, and airline pilot. I've planned and flown strike missions.
