Why would we nuke Iran? We have bunker busters. And we have ICBMs that can act as launch vehicles not just for nukes but for solid depleted uranium warhead as a kinetic energy weapon A 1000KG warhead lands with force close to .12 Kilotons, focused on a small area (.5 meters). A few of those would destroy or crack open the shell of any facility. This isn't an air bursting nuke, but something closer to GPS guided meteors. And then follow with B-1b or B-2 bombers with bunker busters and then perhaps something fun like a themobaric warhead.
