I'm quite interested to see how effective these GBU-57s were. It's been the big question for a long time now. In the 2003 Iraq war, bunker busters had poor penetration, far worse than the US claimed. They put a lot of research and money into the GBU-57s. It is claimed they can penetrate 60m of dirt, and Fordow is more than 80m deep. But they can possibly stack them with precise targetting. But that is dirt. With 69 Mpa concrete they only penetrate 8 meters. And concrete shaped in angles can "steer" these so they turn sideways and don't go as deep.
So I'm still skeptical that these GBU-57s penetrated into Fordo's interior. But I suspect we will find out.
Maybe the US did penetrate all they way in with tactical nukes and is not admitting that is what was used. Or maybe they used what they claimed, and didn't get all the way in. Either of those two seems more likely to me.
But I'm just a computer guy. I dunno anything really.

The only thing I know for certain is the USA just legitimized its nuclear facilities as fair game. It's all fun and games dropping bombs in foriegn countries until radioactive fallout hits you neighborhood.
My friends living there are saying it was completely quite. Maybe they are too far. But that's all I know.
Also, all US citizens are now declared legitimate targets by Iran. Yes, citizens. :-(
I doubt it too. Common sense tells me nope, they didn’t get through.
it is irrelevant what damage was done.
what is relevant is both US and Israel freely use Iranian Air space while Iran doesn't dare send their pilots into Israeli air space.
All that is left now is to assassinate Khamenei and stage a color revolution, then send in US boots to ensure the "revolution" succeeds.
As for the bunker busters in Iraq I believe bunker 18 specifically was given approximately a 30 foot ventilation shaft directly through the top pushing all the rebar directly down as if hit with a giant hammer. The walls are covered with uncountable divots that are pocked through out the interior like shrapnel had scattered everywhere.
I believe bunker 17 was left nearly identical but the entire bunker was lifted 1-2 feet off the ground and fractured the massive concrete doorway that faces the taxiway.
France was pissed the US fucked up their "bomb proof" bunkers.
How's that? 💪
Bonus Detail: The most commonly viewed 2003 Iraq bombing video was I believe bunker 18 and bunker 17 was to the right in the video.

The faster people realize the general public (world wide) has been under attack by the Bankers the quicker as We The People of The World can begin working together.
