00:15In the midst of the latest U.S.-led military campaign against Iran, reports have emerged today
00:21that U.S. B-2 stealth bombers have been tied to strikes in the region, a development that
00:26signals a major shift in American airpower employment.
00:36Tonight we break down what role these rare, highly advanced bombers have played and why
00:42their use matters on the ground and in the airspace over Iran.
00:47First, let's be clear, the B-2 Spirit stealth bomber is one of the U.S. Air Force's most
00:53elusive, high-value assets designed to penetrate deep, well-defended territory with precision.
01:07Shortly after U.S.-Israeli military actions began on February 28th, the operation known
01:13as Epic Fury saw a combined campaign against Iranian military and nuclear-related targets,
01:18and open-source analysts have now linked B-2 bombers to those strikes on key targets inside
01:23Iran.
01:29The B-2's stealth capabilities allow it to enter heavily defended airspace, making it
01:34one of the few platforms able to hit deeply buried or hardened targets without being detected,
01:39a fact that has shaped U.S. strike planning over Iran.
01:45It's important to note, official U.S. confirmation about exact numbers or targets is limited, but
01:50today's signals from military watchers and analysis suggest that these bombers were involved
01:54in at least part of the strike package, despite no immediate public acknowledgement from the
01:58Pentagon.
02:03The use of B-2 bombers in this context, if confirmed fully, would mark a significant escalation
02:08in U.S. air operations, pointing to a willingness to deploy its most sophisticated strategic assets
02:13in combat against one of its regional adversaries.
