Update: One B-2 also dropped two bunker busters on Natanz, according to the U.S. official @EricSchmittNYT

"The B-2’s that struck the Iranian nuclear sites early Sunday flew non-stop for about 37 hours from their base in Missouri, refueling several times mid-air, a U.S. official said on condition of anonymity."

Saturday's strike was the first time the GBU-57A/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) — a 30,000-pound bomb with 6,000 pounds of explosives — was used operationally by the U.S. Air Force. (CNN)
