U.S. deploys B-1 bombers over Iran for first Middle East mission since 1998, targeting ballistic missile sites.
The U.S. Air Force has sent its B-1B Lancer bombers deep into Iran to target ballistic missile sites as part of Operation Epic Fury. This mission marks a serious escalation in Middle East tensions and showcases the strategic reach of American air power.
The Lancer can fly at supersonic speeds and carry up to 75,000 pounds of bombs, making it a cornerstone of U.S. strategic bombing operations. Its long-range capability allows precise strikes on critical targets.
This mission marks the Lancer’s return to the Middle East nearly 25 years after its first combat operation during Operation Desert Fox in 1998. Centcom has not revealed the exact munitions used.
