Seven B-2 Spirit bombers took off from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri, US.
Each aircraft carried two GBU-57 bunker-buster bombs (14 bombs in total).
They flew over the North Atlantic and through Syrian and Iraqi airspace to Iran.
They were refuelled in the air by three Boeing KC-46 Pegasus aircraft.
Strike at an altitude of 12 km
The first plane at an altitude of 12 km over the underground nuclear centre in Fordow. Two bunker-buster bombs released.
The bombs are directed to the target by receiving a satellite signal. Each bomb weighs 13,000 kilograms, so they are lightning-fast
The bombs create a crater on impact and go deep. They can penetrate the ground up to 200 feet, and concrete up to 60 feet. Electronically controlled explosives detonate.
The nuclear plant is estimated to be 300 feet deep. The other six planes drop bombs one by one.
Tomahawk to destroy Isfahan and Natanz
US submarines (Virginia/Los Angeles class submarines) in the sea 400 miles off the coast of Iran.
Each submarine targeted a nuclear plant. 30 Tomahawk missiles were fired.
The remaining two GBU-57 bunker-buster bombs fell on Natanz
The bombers completed the mission at 5 am Indian time and returned to the US. At 5.20 am, Trump released the information via Truth Social.
This is the first time that the US has used the GBU-57 in an attack.
