But if I had to do kind of the open source macro assessment, I think today in 2025, the Israelis can destroy any above ground facility in the Islamic Republic of Iran today on their own. An above ground facility could be a political entity, it could be a military base, it could be a production facility for drones or missiles, it could be a radar installation, it could even be an above ground

Those are things that without, I think, the heavy bombers that countries like the United States of America has, without some of the munitions that you can drop, those GBUs, I forget which number 38 or 57, the massive ordnance penetrator, as well as some of the other heavier conventional bombs like the U.S.

Without those that can really explode and tunnel and penetrate much, much deeper than the, you know, 500-pound or 2,000-pound bunker buster bombs that you've seen the Israelis use to the north and south against Hezbollah and against Hamas, you will need America.
