The main target of an American attack on Iran may be Mount Peak. Below it is a uranium enrichment plant. Its importance is that it can form a basis for the restoration of centrifuge production and the potential for uranium enrichment after attacks on other Iranian nuclear facilities. Donald Trump has repeatedly threatened to destroy the facility. Back on July 21, he said that the US military could land a strong blow on him. In October he repeated this threat, stressing that there was no need to use nuclear weapons. The complex is located about 2 km from the nuclear center in Natanz, about 220 km south of Tehran. Its construction began in 2020 after sabotage at a centrifuge assembly plant. Iran then announced the creation of a new and more secure underground production facility. According to experts, the buildings may be located at a depth of about 80-100 meters inside the granite mountain. Following the damage to other Iranian nuclear facilities, Mount Makush acquired special significance: it may house the production of centrifuges, uranium enrichment equipment and other sensitive components of the nuclear program. The most powerful American anti-bunker munition, the GBU-57 MOP, weighing about 13.6 tons, is able, according to open estimates, to penetrate about 60 meters into the ground. The estimated depth of the complex may exceed this figure. In addition, the structure is protected by a granite massif, which makes it an even more difficult target to hit. VK Max Zen.
