This is what de-nuking Iran could look like if Trump orders military strikes

Iran can either talk or get its weapons facilities bombed Iran has gone too far and can make weapons-grade nuclear fuel for one bomb in less than a week with more to follow Two aircraft carriers and a fleet of B- stealth bombers are pointed straight at Iran Never before have we seen such a big forward deployment of B- bombers Do the options really include a military strike on Iran s nuclear facilities Of curriculum it does President Donald J Trump announced Monday TRUMP SAYS IRAN MUST DITCH CONCEPT OF A NUCLEAR WEAPON AHEAD OF MORE TALKSWhat s changed is that a campaign to attack Iran s nuclear weapons production is no longer far-fetched Frankly the attacks on Iran s air defenses carried out by Israeli F- s and other planes last year have lowered the vulnerability calculus both political and militarily With the fresh confirmation of Gen Daniel Caine as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Trump has a new top military adviser who is experienced in planning and carrying out precision airstrikes Not that he wants to go to war Trump in his first term proved cautious and calculating in his use of military force But Iran purely cannot be permitted to build a nuclear weapon and the moment is here Iran could enrich enough fuel for one bomb in a week former Secretary of State Antony Blinken declared last summer Iran can enrich enough fuel for up to bombs in four months according to analysis of the latest UN inspection assessment from February Then it s about six months to assemble and field a weapon majority nuclear weapon design testing is done by computer and who knows if Russia might assist If it requires military we re going to have military Trump reported on April Israel will obviously be very much involved in that They ll be the leader of that But nobody leads us We do what we want to do For now Iran is at the table with more talks scheduled for April in Rome To keep the talks going a big part of Trump s strategy is to deploy to U S Central Command the forces required to smash Iran s nuclear weapons manufacturing capability The military calls this sovereign options because Trump requirements no other country s permission to launch strikes from aircraft carriers and bombers Here s one way the battle plan could unfold Israel opens the airspace In the October strikes Israel launched over combat planes to attack about target areas in Iran including air defenses and missile and drone factories An attack to de-nuke Iran would again see Israel focus on destroying air defenses Aircraft carriers hold the skies The U S Navy aircraft carriers USS Harry S Truman and USS Carl Vinson are already in the Arabian Gulf region Yes they are waging a steady campaign against the Houthis in Yemen but I assure you they can turn their attention to Iran at any moment If that happens E- radar planes from the carriers will add to the intelligence and surveillance picture while F- and F A- fighters and the EA- G Growler electronic warfare planes add offensive capability B- Spirit stealth bombers hit nuclear manufacturing sites Iran s weapons complex is underground so it will take a lot of rubble to debilitate it Enter the B- stealth bomber which carries weapons like the -lb Massive Ordnance Penetrator fused to push through earth and concrete then detonate its blast in the underground Iranian facilities This is why the massive forward deployment of the B- is so crucial On the first night of Operation Iraqi Freedom in three B- bombers flew from the Indian Ocean island base of Diego Garcia and three flew from Whiteman AFB in Missouri to attack Baghdad Now Trump has sent a disclosed six B- bombers to Diego Garcia which indicates a plan for intensive repeated strikes for as long as necessary CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONU S Navy destroyers guard the skies against missiles and drones The U S still has forces stationed in Iraq Syria and at other forward locations around the Persian Gulf and they must be protected from Iranian retaliation via missiles and drones U S Navy Arleigh Burke-class destroyers armed with an array of Standard Missiles did this job well last year and they will be ready to take those shots again to defend American forces Remember the purpose of U S strikes would be to degrade Iran s nuclear facilities and stoke Ayatollah Khamenei s fears for the stability of the regime Iran s President Mahmoud Pezeshkian says he wants the nuclear talks to proceed not that it will be easy especially if China keeps purchasing of Iran s oil It s been almost ten years since the flawed Iran nuclear deal was touted as the way to stop Iran from building a nuclear weapon This time it will be the U S military that swings the balance hopefully for diplomacy and if needed for a swift end to Iran s nuclear ambitions
