The Guardian

quote:

A US F-15E fighter has been shot down over Iran, prompting a frantic US search and rescue effort for its two-strong crew, in the first such incident since the start of the war.

Aviation experts said the wreckage pictured was in fact from a F-15E from the US air force’s 494th squadron, based at RAF Lakenheath in the UK, though it could not at first be confirmed when and where the pictures were taken.

Conflict will be over in a week.

I get rig reports from our operations in the Middle East. One of our rigs in Bahrain was evacuated on Tuesday for a missile attack.

I want to be an Air Force pilot
I want to fly an F-15
I want to fly with the cockpit open
I want to hear those terrorists scream

But I was told this war/maneuver/expedition/experience is good for us. I’d rather stick with that narrative, thank you

How many sorties have we flown over Iranian airspace since the start of this thing?

How many of our planes have been shot down?

Never thought an Aggie could be gayer, but you’ve proved me wrong.

Zero chance.

Hell they wouldn't even know they were there.

I'm curious how the f22 is doing facing older aircraft...or if they even bothered putting them in the air.
