The B-2s are not the threat, per se. It’s the ordinance they can carry.

It’s only about 3600 miles in the air to Tehran from Diego Garcia. Don’t even need to refuel on on the way there, just the return, depending on payload.

Yep, neither is a B-52, B-1, or a nuke sub. Thank God, we do not build them with an inability to carry ordinance.
