I literally have no clue. That is why I asked the question.

Cruise missiles were the best weapons to use for this type of strike. We don't have a better medium range weapon that can both avoid anti-missile defenses, and hit precise targets.

Isn't that crazy that something we've been using for 30 years is still the best choice at this point? Have we slacked in our military R&D?

Plus, by using cruise missiles we didn't use manned aircraft and thus kept our pilots out of harms way.
