The Pentagon is facing a nightmare scenario in the Persian Gulf. The IRGC has confirmed the recovery of an intact GBU-57 "Massive Ordnance Penetrator"—the 30,000-lb bomb designed to obliterate Iran's underground nuclear sites. Along with 9,500 submunitions and advanced smart fuzes, Iranian engineers are now reverse-engineering the Eglin steel and GPS/INS guidance packages. This "tit for tat" seizure could allow Tehran to harden its "missile cities" against the very weapons meant to destroy them.
