Given that Iran is developing nukes and the missiles with which to deliver them, this would be a fine opportunity to convert tens of billions of dollars of very expensive Iranian equipment into scrap. And by equipment, I mean fixed and rotary wing aircraft, navy ships, radar stations, ballistic missile stockpiles, ammo dumps and nuclear facilities. We might even, for a change, destroy stuff that costs more than the ordnance we use.
