Iran said it had shot down a United States Air Force fighter jet over its territory, and footage released by Iranian channels appears to show the wreckage of an F-15E Strike Eagle from the U.S. Air Force’s 494th Fighter Squadron.
Iranian outlets initially claimed the aircraft was an F-35, but a closer review of the debris shown in the video points to a different aircraft. Visible sections of the airframe, including parts of the fuselage and external mounting points, match the layout of the F-15E rather than the stealth design of the F-35.
So he’s just feeding strike fighters to the coyotes at this point, huh?
They’re doing a “blackhawk down” and sending in tonnes of airforce to rescue the downed pilots and losing even more aircraft in the process. It’s a complete clownshow.
Got any good sources on that? I’d be really interested in seeing the details.
