China claims to have found a "weak spot" in the U.S. GBU-57 bunker-buster bomb used in strikes on Iran, revealing that its heavily armored nose contrasts with much thinner, vulnerable side armor. Chinese military researchers suggest that anti-aircraft guns like the Swiss Oerlikon GDF—used by Iran—could potentially intercept the bomb mid-flight if fired from less than 1.2 km away and at angles below 68°, giving a 42% chance of destruction.

It's a gravity bomb. Even the antique Bloodhound missile could have gotten it.

Of course they would, at this point they're like scientists in North Korea.

Media, scientists, statisticians, doctors, all will lie and gaslight for the Party.

Makes you wonder who would be the gunner calculating the angles as the bomb drops if they spotted it.
