If there is talk of the highest strength of a non-atomic bomb in the world, then the name of America’s GBU-57A/B ‘Massive Ordnance Penetrator’ (MOP) comes first. This is a bomb that has been especially designed to destroy the hidden locations hidden in depth. This is not a atomic bomb, but its strength is considered as effective as an atomic explosion. Its weight is about 13,600 kg and it can explode by penetrating 61 meters below the surface.
Why is it called bunker Buster & nbsp;
This bomb has the ability to penetrate tunnels and bunkers in the ground. Its design is such that it can be dropped one after the other, so that every explosion can further depth. It is dropped from the state-of-the-art B-2 stealth bomber of America, which can cover long distances without being seen in the enemy and can take heavy payload.
Can Iran’s Ford Site be targeted?
Iran’s Fordo Atomic Site is located inside a mountain and is covered with a very strong protective structure. But a bomb with capacity like MOP can also shatter it. Given the depth and security of the falso, this is the only weapon that can completely destroy it.
Why can America only use it?
At present, the MOP is only with the US and the B-2 bomber is needed for its use, which is only with the US Air Force. Israel has neither bomb nor aircraft firing it. According to experts, it is not possible to use America’s direct approval and participation.
strategic warning or war preparation?
Although this bomb has not been used in the war till now, it can be said by the US by looking at its testing and preparations that this weapon can erase the biggest enemy stronghold in a few minutes when needed. Its use against Iran is currently being seen as just an alternative, but the severity of this option cannot be ignored.
