THE AIR FORCE IS UPGRADING MASSIVE PENETRATOR BOMBS FOR ATTACK ON IRAN #...

BUNKER-BUSTERS
The U.S. Air Force is continuing to update its stockpile of 30,000-pound class Massive Ordnance Penetrator bunker busters, or MOPs, and bring older MOPs up to the latest standard, also known as the GBU-57E/B. This comes as Iran has announced that it will begin injecting uranium hexafluoride gas into centrifuges at its underground nuclear facility at Fordo – the kind of prospective target that drove the development of the MOP in the first place – a significant breach of the controversial 2015 international agreement over the country's nuclear program.
What are they injecting into these nuclear war-heads?
How many are they buying from Boeing??
