B-2 Bomber Pilots Had Toilet, Microwave and A Cooler For Snacks on Their 37-Hour Fordow Bombing Raid​


The B-2 stealth bombers used to attack the Fordow nuclear enrichment plant are equipped with toilets, microwaves and usually a cooler for snacks to make life more comfortable for the pilots who were stuck in the cockpit for the 37-hour trip from Missouri to Iran and back.

The fleet of advanced American bombers — originally designed to drop nuclear bombs on the Soviet Union — took off from the Whiteman Air Force Base outside Kansas City on Friday for an 18 hour ride across the world, refueling several times in mid-air, officials said.

For such long trips to be bearable, the high-tech bombers have their cockpits outfitted with mini refrigerators and a microwave oven to keep its crew fed an alert.

There’s also enough room for one pilot to lay down and rest while the other flies the batwing jet.

Kremlin warns that Other Nations Ready To Give Iran Nukes: ‘Dangerous escalation has begun’​

Moscow warned Sunday that several nations are prepared to supply Tehran with nuclear weapons, as Russia and China condemned America’s attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities.

Dmitry Medvedev, who serves as deputy head of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s Security Council, claimed Saturday’s US airstrike — the first to use 15-ton GBU-57 “bunker-buster” bombs in combat — only caused minimal damage to Tehran’s nuclear sites, including the fortified Fordow enrichment plant.

If Democrat influencers were copy-and-pasting the exact same message, which I'm sure has happened at some point, I would make fun of them for that too rather than cheerleading for a political party day in and day out like you

Same Risk, the Islamic Jihad has not changed for 60years. They will not stop. They do not forgive or forget. Our grandchildren will be terrorized for this bombing. They are still raging about the Bush administration and for the bombs we dropped in 02.

Do you know what Iran was like before we installed the Shah? They weren't radical Islamists. They were a cosmopolitan nation like any in the West where women wore miniskirts. After installing a dictator because British Petroleum wanted access to their oil they turned to radical Islam as a source of unity in their resistance. So in a way our meddling in the Middle East is what created the Jihadist mentality in Iran.

What do you think this new batch of meddling is gonna do? You guys complain about radical Islam not realizing our actions create it.

The first cockpit picture was a B52.

We can't hate the news media enough.

It has nothing to do with them being Muslim. It's because of their track record in regards to attacking their neighbors and anyone else within the region. They've earned the biggest state sponsor of terror monicker for a reason.

If one doesn't understand why you wouldn't want terrorists gaining nuclear weapon technology.......... You can lead the horse to water but you can't make him drink.

So they've been doing all these attacks unprovoked? Or have we been trying to topple their government since they deposed the dictator we installed that oppressed them?

You can't pretend like Iran is an irrational actor by ignoring all our actions that have created this mess. We're the ones that cast the first blow when along with the UK we toppled their democratically elected secular government to install a dictator to do our bidding because British Petroleum wanted access to their oil. After decades of oppression by the American backed government of the Shah the Iranian people turned to Islamic fundamentalism. So whether you like it or not we caused this mess. And now you think the solution is more violence? Why would Iran ever stop if all they've seen is our unprovoked aggression?

I'm not saying we the American people endorsed our nation's actions in starting this mess with Iran. But we as the American people have to smarten up and realize that falling for the lie that these people just hate us for no reason is the tool governments use to keep us in perpetual wars. The Iranian people are not evil. Neither is their government. They have simply been acting in self-defense. We need to get our government to stop starting fights then blaming those that try to defend themselves.

They were bombed. Seems likely Tomahawks were used. I question what was exactly used on Fordow. If it was bunker busters they were very underwhelming. I would like to see some seismic data.

As of right now, it looks like these attacks did little to hamper Iran's nuclear ambitions. It made for a great story though, too bad they stole it from Top Gun.

I would like you to see some seismic data as well.

You make statements sourced from lack of information.

No one is saying to be sad for Iran. The question is are you happy that American resources and good will are being used to fight a war in another nation's interests? If Israel wants to fight Iran I'll cheer them on. But I'm not supporting us acting as their proxy using our money and resources to fight their wars. Also think about how much global goodwill we lose for this sycophantic support for Israel no matter what they do.

This is not about feeling sorry for Iran. It's about not hurting our nation to benefit another.
