Figure 1000 miles each way straight line. Cruise at 550-600mph. Enter Iran at 740mph. Attack at 300-400 mph (relative due to turning/banking/lining up for runs), exfiltrate at 1200mph, fly home at 550mph.

Say 4-6 hour mission round trip. But that's just an intial SWAG.

It should be raining 500 pound bombs in Iran one day real soon.We should pop the mullahs big heads before they grow too big and burst out of their diapers.I wonder how they deal with diaper rash on the head over there?
