20 MOPs? Do you really believe the US will publicly tell the world about their limitations and weaknesses? They have more than 20 MOPs, just like Israel has Nukes.

This isn't some big secret. You can just Google it. Boeing developed the GBU-57, and as of 2015, had been contracted to produce 20 of them, according to the Air Force. Now that the MOP has shown to be a failure, who cares how many there are?

Probably, but I bet it’s not 200. The generals are gonna be like “we’re gonna need to use those later so we can’t deplete the stockpile more” just like they say about giving Ukraine Patriots.

Actually yes -or close to it. There may be more than 20, reasonable to believe 25 or even 40 but not an infinite supply. So say there's 100 -5 times the number based on unclassified procurement documents. So if 16 did shit-all, what fraction of the total should be used?
