An Egyptian media person (who presumably would not have said it without government cover) suggested that Israel should bomb a major Iranian nuclear development site. We have recently tested our newest super bunker buster bomb. Any chance we gave a few to a friendly foreign power?

No chance, really.

Special software necessary to deliver the weapon, along with flight testing to ensure safe separation when released. And the F-16 physically can't carry it and the F-15E needs special upgrades and a special loading process and once loaded, can't carry it as it taxi's as the weapon is too large for ground clearance.

We tested the weapon on B-52’s and we didn't sell any of those aircraft, even to our special friends and allies.
