Notes -
Despite what wags online will tell you, nuclear weapons would actually be very useful in retail combat. The reason for their lack of usage is for political reasons to maintain the nuclear taboo, not because they aren’t useful.
I do know that the Houthis and Hezbollah both use very deep underground fortifications of the kind that would be hard to take out even with multiple 20,000 pound bunker busters dropped from a B-2. Much less trying to take those apart with fighter-bombers, which can carry a 2,500 pound munition.
