F-35 hit over Iran. Emergency landing at a US base
A US F-35 jet was reportedly hit over Iran, prompting an emergency landing at a US base amid military actions involving the US and Israel.
The article discusses a recent military incident involving the US and Israel, highlighting the use of F-35 fighter jets in their ongoing operations. Each F-35 costs over $100 million, and while the US has previously lost aircraft during military actions, this particular incident marks a notable event with reported enemy fire. On February 28, following attacks on Iran, three F-15s were accidentally shot down by Kuwaiti air defense, and a KC-135 tanker aircraft crashed in western Iraq, resulting in the loss of all six crew members. The US military has confirmed that the KC-135 incident was not due to enemy fire or friendly fire, emphasizing the complexity of the military environment in the region.
