How the B‑2 Hit Iran’s Nuclear Facility Undetected – Operation Midnight Hammer

Megaprojects Uncovered  "No radar. No trace. Yet one of Iran’s deepest sites was reached.

"This is the story of a B‑2 Spirit mission so precise, so deeply coordinated, it became known as Operation Midnight Hammer — the most advanced showcase of stealth systems and aerospace engineering in recent history.

"Using the 30,000-lb GBU‑57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator — a next-gen bunker buster — the U.S. deployed breakthrough technology against one of the hardest targets on Earth: the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant, Iran’s most fortified underground nuclear facility.

"What makes this operation remarkable isn’t just the secrecy — it’s the synchronization: 145+ aircraft, near-perfect radar evasion, and a smart-fused penetrator capable of navigating through geological complexity. It’s a case study in military design, engineering megaproject execution, and digital-era targeting intelligence.

"Was it a mission… or a masterclass in how engineering can quietly rewrite the rules of deterrence?"

"No radar. No trace. Yet one of Iran’s deepest sites was reached."
