This is an AI-generated summary and has not been vetted by the Firstpost editorial team
The United States is deploying the B-1 Lancer supersonic strategic bombers to West Asia. The bombers were seen leaving the United Kingdom towards US airbases in the Gulf. The B-1 Bomber, nicknamed 'Bone' is one of the most lethal bombers in the world. It has a swept wing configuration that allows it to fly at supersonic speeds while dropping massive payloads. The aircraft can drop the GBU-72, a bunker buster bomb that can penetrate the ground upto 150 feet. The aircraft's deployment comes right after US President Donald Trump threatened to bomb Iran's Pickaxe Mountain. Does the B-1 bomber have the capability to take out the Iranian secret nuclear facility or is this the beginning of a larger air campaign? Hem Kaur Saroya tells you more on Vantage on Firstpost.
