US Military Marks Grim Milestone: Fighter Jets Shot Down Over Iran, First Since 2003

In a significant development, the US military has experienced its first loss of fighter jets to enemy fire since 2003. Two jets were hit, with one F-fifteen E crashing during operations, and the other, an A-ten Warthog, taking enemy fire but returning safely to Kuwaiti airspace. The pilot ejected and was rescued. This marks the fifth US plane down in the Iran conflict, signaling a shift from low-threat fights to peer-level battles, raising air power risks in real time.
