It would have been a huge task but if anyone could do it the Israelis could. Convert a civilian jet liner. Expensive but cheap compared to being nuked by Iran.

A DC10 Air Tanker might be a good candidate, you already have the makings of a bomb bay in the aircraft’s belly. Depending on how many gallons of water is held in that bay, a 30,000 lb bomb may not be too heavy. You’d probably just need to make modifications to hold, and release the bomb

“It would have been a huge task but if anyone could do it the Israelis could. Convert a civilian jet liner. “

The P8 is a Boeing 737 with a bomb bay under it. The Israelis have a number of 767ER in their fleet of VIP aircraft and the National airline. They could with time mod one like the P8 with a bomb bay 767s carry 40+ tonnes max payload over 3500+ miles you can lay down a lot of hurt with 40 tonnes of boom.

The problem is time, they don’t.have it. The USA is going to take out frodow there will be much gnashing of teeth by the isolationists but they will get over it. Iran will never be allowed to have a nuke.period.full.stop. If that means we have to bomb them fine they have been in warfare against us since 1979 this is just the final battle of that war. The mullahs must be eliminated this is that battle right now. The fight for Western civilization is happening like it or not.
