On Sunday, the Pentagon revealed details about Operation Midnight Hammer, describing it as the most extensive B-2 airstrike in U.S. history, which targeted three significant Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday.

During his first formal statement following the strikes, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth emphasized to reporters at the Pentagon that “the scope of this was intentionally limited,” while also noting that the U.S. military’s capabilities are “nearly unlimited.”

Gen. Dan Caine, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, provided an outline of the operation’s timeline and the deception strategies used to strike Iran’s Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan nuclear facilities.

Caine called the operation the “largest B-2 operational strike in U.S. history,” and that “no other military in the world could have done this.”

“This mission demonstrates the unmatched reach, coordination and capability of the United States military in just a matter of weeks,” Caine said. “This went from strategic planning to global execution.”

Caine also said this was the second-longest B-2 mission ever flown, exceeded only by missions flown in the days following 9/11.
