The bomb was reportedly used on an Islamic State tunnel complex in Afghanistan's Nangarhar Province. A U.S. Air Force Special Operations Command MC-130 Combat Talon transport aircraft dropped the GPS-guided bomb out of the cargo ramp.

But you're right, Teyates.  Not an aircraft to use in areas heavily defended by "Triple A" or SAMs or w/o fighter support.

But most penetrating "bunker busters" mentioned above could be dropped by fast movers conventional and stealth bomber / fighters,  but most importantly - missile.
