Thanks, just listened to that at 2x speed. Much of what he says makes sense, especially about the geometry of the angle of attack. I'm not smart enough to know but insofar as these bunker busters haven't been used often in real world scenarios there is the possibility of a bit of an "upsell" in capability by those promoting their use. And why it's not an easy decision to make. There are other options beyond bunker busters but they are even riskier and some would involve boots on the ground, presumably Israeli special forces sabotage.

Must repeat what I wrote elsewhere that this is eerily similar to the main theme of movie Top Gun 2, a.k.a. Top Gun: Maverick. It's worth a watch if you haven't seen it. I wasn't expecting much but it was very good, imo. Perhaps the best sequel since The Godfather, Part II, or Rocky II. Rarely does the professional critic class agree with the audience at this high of a level and I always go with the audience over the professional douchebags when making my viewing choices. :-)
