DTRA Hosts Telephonic Press Briefing on Iran Nuclear Facilities Bombing

Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) officials will hold a telephonic on-background panel discussion on the recent Iran precision target events that took place on June 20. The discussion will be on Thursday, July 10, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. EDT and will last approximately 30 minutes.

The two officials will discuss the Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP), a precision-guided, air-delivered bunker-buster bomb fielded in 2002-2024 by the U.S. Air Force. DTRA personnel spearheaded the development and provided significant input to the project.

Call-in information: (410) 874-6749, Conference ID: 158689014#. The phone line will open at 12:45 p.m. Due to the anticipated high volume of reporters calling, we recommend you call in at least five minutes before the start of the briefing.
