The US jet that was shot down by Iran?

[imanamerican63]

It was shot down with a shoulder held missile launcher!

So much for Trump and Pee Brain’s assumption that Iran’s capabilities are done?

This two idiots’ idea of war is invade and it’s over! The idea of these two have the launch codes is beyond ridiculous and dangerous. They don’t comprehend the implications of war. They have highly ranked military leaders who should be able to stop these idiots, but seems like they aren’t doing anything about it?

The scary part is coming to light! Iran has more military power than Trump expected. The truth be told told? They are just as powerful as they claim! They are getting some of the weapons from Putin. Yes, the very same person that Trump defends when he can.

So, what is the difference of Iran under Obama or Biden? Trump! He has asserted his illegitimate position into a war that has been a disaster.

It’s not because Iran has has nuclear weapons, rather it’s because Trump is a buffoon and a bully! We saw this in Venezuela and we heard his illegitimate statements about Canada and Greenland. He is in way over his head and now we all will feel the affects of war once again.

Lord, help us all!

7. IMPEACH THE DEMENTED FUCK!

...says it all.

It is simply stated, quite succinct and pretty much the only obvious solution to the world's most pressing problem.

I think I shall have a bumper sticker made.

Thanks, Join.

2. A shoulder fired missile launcher can be anywhere

It's disappointing to know those can take down our jets. They are relatively cheap and easy to hide vs our expensive fighter jets.

3. Correct

A better question is why a Strike Eagle was low enough to be in range of a MANPADS.

[IronLionZion]

11. To literally fly low under the radar.

They were so concerned with traditional anti-aircraft defenses, they forgot about smaller portable weapons at relatively closer range.

[RetiredParatrooper]

12. The F-15E does it's best work higher up

Due to the weapons loadout they normally have. Illuminating one with a SAM's fire control radar ends badly for the radar. Strike Eagle's don't travel alone.

13. Somebody gave the order to fly low

Hegseth fired too many qualified generals who know how to do the job correctly.

4. I used to play video games for hours

PeeWee Hogsbreath can keep playing his video game war like its a Mario Brothers Reunion. Wonder what it’s like to play a video game while you’re a blind drunk.

5. If we're at "war", then they won't be looking into the Epstein files

[twodogsbarking]

6. and that's the truth

[EdmondDantes_]

8. Except given the overall results, that's a faulty conclusion

Regardless of the immoral nature of deciding to attack Iran, outside of a few cases like this, Iran's military isn't nearly as capable as they claim as evidenced by the fact that they can't do much more than hitting a few oil industrial facilities in the region and semi-block the strait.

10. yeah, around 12,000 bombing sorties over Iran and they only manage to shoot down 2 planes is pathetic

0.0166666667% success rate
Iraq did better then that:
During the 1991 Gulf War (Operation Desert Storm), Coalition forces lost a total of 75 aircraft. Of these, 37 were fixed-wing combat aircraft and 23 were helicopters lost in combat, with the remainder lost due to operational accidents.
