Footage released showing how bunker-buster bombs were used in historic Iran strike

The Pentagon released jaw-dropping footage showcasing how the 30,000-pound heavy-duty bunker-buster bombs that were used against Iran successfully demolish fortified targets deep underground.

The stunning video showed a GBU-57 series MOP (Massive Ordnance Penetrator) crashing into a target and then unleashing a bright inferno through a shaft.

 “Unlike a normal surface bomb, you won’t see an impact crater because they’re designed to deeply bury and then function,” Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan Caine explained to reporters during a press briefing Thursday.

“All six weapons at each vent at Fordow [Uranium Enrichment Plant] went exactly where they were intended to go.”

Another angle displayed during the briefing showed a MOP hitting a target in slow motion and cutting through its exterior without detonating. Caine also showed a clip of a MOP traversing the inside of the “mission space.”

“A bomb has three effects that causes damage: blast, fragmentation and overpressure. In this case, the primary kill mechanisms in the mission space was a mix of overpressure and blast,” he added.

“Imagine what this looks like six times over.”
