00:26Behind closed doors at the White House,
00:28a 45-minute briefing,
00:30the top US commander in the Middle East,
00:33senior military leaders,
00:34and a president being shown exactly what America's military can still do to Iran.
00:39The options on the table?
00:41A short and powerful final strike.
00:46Here's the situation.
00:48Back in February, the US and Israel launched Operation Epic Fury.
00:53Devastating Iranian missile sites, nuclear facilities,
00:56air defenses, and IRGC leadership
00:59in one of the most ambitious military campaigns in decades.
01:03A ceasefire followed in early April.
01:05Major combat paused.
01:07But the pause is not over.
01:10The US Navy is blockading Iranian ports.
01:13Oil prices have spiked above $120 a barrel.
01:17And Iran, with its military gutted and its economy bleeding,
01:21has so far refused to come to the table on terms Washington will accept.
01:26So now?
01:28CENTCOM is back with new options.
01:30Admiral Brad Cooper, commander of US Central Command,
01:34sat down with President Trump for 45 minutes.
01:37The subject?
01:39What a decisive follow-up strike on Iran actually looks like.
01:44Precision strikes on remaining military infrastructure.
01:47Additional carrier strike groups surging into the region.
01:51Bombers.
01:53IRGC targets.
01:55And hardened, deeply buried ballistic missile sites that survived the first wave.
02:00Sites that have reportedly been moved to stay out of range of conventional US weapons.
02:05That last part is where things get interesting.
02:10CENTCOM has requested deployment of the Dark Eagle,
02:13America's long-range hypersonic missile system.
02:16This weapon has never been used in combat.
02:19Until now, it's been a prototype.
02:22A proof of concept.
02:24The Dark Eagle flies faster than Mach 5.
02:27It maneuvers to evade air defenses.
02:30It can reach targets over 1,700 miles away.
02:34And it's specifically designed to hit the kind of hardened, buried targets that conventional missiles can't.
02:40Each one costs roughly $15 million.
02:44Iran moved its ballistic missile launchers specifically to stay out of reach.
02:48The Dark Eagle was built for exactly that problem.
02:52If Trump gives the order, this would be the first combat use of a hypersonic weapon in US military history.
02:59Trump's public posture has been clear.
03:02Iranian leaders, he says, are sitting in a cave.
03:06Their military decimated.
03:07Their economy strangled.
03:09Their oil revenue cut off by a blockade he's called genius and 100% foolproof.
03:15They want a deal, he added, badly.
03:19But the War Powers clock is ticking.
03:22May 1st marks 60 days since hostilities began.
03:26The point where Congress traditionally demands authorization for continued military action.
03:31The administration says the current posture doesn't require that.
03:35But the briefing sends an unmistakable signal.
03:39The window to deal is open.
03:41It will not stay open forever.
03:43A weapon that's never been fired in war.
03:46A commander presenting strike packages to the president.
03:49A regime running out of time and money.
03:53Iran has a choice to make.
03:55And America just made sure they know exactly what the alternative looks like.
