How deep are US bunker busters?
I mean Fordow is 300feet down but the one bomb that the media keep posting about(GBU 57) has a depth penetration of around 200feet down before exploding. Would enough of them exploding on top cause a massive total collapse of the earth into the base below, or would the aim be to have one blow a hole downwards and a precise exact drop on the same position would slide through the 200 foot hole already penetrated before the new penetration begins into the base another 100 feet down?
Does the simple act of an extremely heavy munition penetrating a target at speed guarantee it will go further than 200 feet down before exploding?
Someone with knowledge of bunker busters please explain.
Worth noting two B2's were on a "training mission" last night, GBU 57's can only be carried by B2's due to their weight(13.3 tonnes) and length(20.5 feet).

Considering the last two days of threats did nothing, I'd say nothing.
