SS: A US F-35 fighter jet was reportedly hit by Iranian fire during a mission over Iran, though the exact cause is still under investigation. The pilot survived the incident. The damage forced the aircraft to land safely afterward.

Why is this a headline?? It’s war, a war that the US started. What was expected?

Idk man,the footage that the irgc posted looks wrong, I can smell bullshit on it.
Edit:No countermeasures were deployed, and the footage cuts almost immediately after impact, which is suspicious. The final frame appears to show the aircraft going cold right after impact, which points to visual inconsistencies or rendering issue rather than a real event something consistent with how many recent viral clips have turned out to be edited, recycled, or AI-generated. I know centcom said a fighter was forced to land in some middle eastern base and the pilot is stable but the irgc footage looks strange.

No, it was a friendly fire. (Sorry, I guess thats used up) It suffered some mechanical damage (used up also). The pilot crashed it while parallel parking.

Just hoping it wasn’t a female pilot. We’ll never hear the end of it.

Joe Kent, director of US National CounterTerrorism, in Portland, Oregon, resigned to protest against the US-Israel war against Iran.
In his resignation letter to Donald Trump, Joseph Kent said ‘Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.’ 👉AIPAC (and never forget ADL)
Joseph Kent said the Islamic Republic posed no imminent threat to the United States. “I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran.”
As an ex-Green Beret who served multiple combat tours, and a member of the ** SUCKERS & LOSERS ** according to Trump, Joseph Kent wrote a resignation letter to Trump stating that:
“Until June of 2025, you understood that the wars in the Middle East were a trap that robbed America of the precious lives of our Patriots and depleted the wealth and prosperity of our Nation.”
And he dramatically continues, by writing on that same letter:
“Early in this administration, high-ranking Israeli officials and influential members of the American media deployed a misinformation campaign that wholly undermined your America First platform and sowed pro-war sentiments to encourage a war against Iran.”
“This echo chamber was used to deceive you into believing that Iran posed an imminent threat to the United States of America, and that should you strike now, there was a clear path to a swift victory.”
“This was a lie and it is the same tactic the Israelis used to draw us into the disastrous Iraq war that cost our nation the lives of thousands of our best men and women.
I cannot support sending the next generation off to fight and die in a war that serves NO benefit to the American people nor justifies the cost of American lives.”
Last week, Chris Murphy, a Connecticut Senator who attended a two-hour briefing on the White House’s current aims for the conflict said the USA administration is not seeking to destroy Iran’s nuclear weapons programme, nor force regime change in the country, and Trump is unable to “defend this war in public”.
Iran’s regime will likely remain in power, USA intelligence has said, despite almost three weeks of US-Israeli attacks on the country. USS Gerald Ford was already on fire 🔥 and sailors cannot even use the toilets…
Although Trump and Netanyahu have vowed to destroy Iran until a change of government is achieved, a multitude of intelligence reports provide “consistent analysis that the regime is not in danger” of collapse.
This war aligns neatly with Israel’s long‑standing desire to take Iran “off the geopolitical chessboard”. However, Trump was warned that attacking Iran could trigger strikes against USA Gulf allies, according to a US official and two sources familiar with US intelligence reports.

Uh, it’s not a “war” – it’s an excursion.
Fake
Funny When Rafale was down many posts made headlines and suddenly now all under hiding in bunkers…/s
Low and fast = a very hot skin. I’d be curious to know if the launch was detected on any of the IR cameras. We’ll probably never know.
They didn’t know it was stealth
