Operation Epic Fury: The Bomber Iran Couldn't Stop

Mon, 09 Mar 2026 02:01:15 +0000

How did a canceled, Cold-War-era relic become the undisputed apex predator of Operation Epic Fury? In March 2026, the B-1B Lancer executed a grueling 34-hour, non-stop global strike, completely dismantling Iranian ballistic missile sites.

In this video, we take a deep dive into the brutal physics, extreme engineering, and sheer firepower of the Rockwell B-1B Lancer. From the frozen flightlines of South Dakota to the heavily defended airspace of the Middle East, discover how this 400,000-pound leviathan uses variable-sweep wings, terrain masking at Mach 0.92, and a massive internal payload of AGM-158 JASSM-ERs to deliver devastating hammer blows that stealth fighters alone couldn't achieve.
