Binkov just did a great video that explained the feasibility of attacking the Fordo facility. The gist of it was:
>Israel has the weapons to take it out, but they are nuclear.
>The facility is a long hallway that runs directly beneath and parallel to the ridgeline of the mountain, divided by blast doors and linked by multiple parallel side hallways in case of cave ins.
>Assuming a sloped tunnel, 90m of hard rock is protecting the hallway.
>Multiple american bunker busters would be needed to reach and collapse the whole structure, at least 36, but maybe 90.
>Bunker busters must come down vertically because diagonal impacts would cause the hole to self seal via cave-ins.
Basically, it's not gonna happen. America stands to lose a lot from getting involved, due to the expenditure of munitions and the real chance that they might not even be successful.
