A second United States Air Force combat aircraft crashed in the Persian Gulf region on Friday as rescue teams continued searching for a missing crew member from a downed F-15E Strike Eagle, according to two U.S. officials cited by The New York Times.
The second aircraft, an A-10 Thunderbolt II, went down near the Strait of Hormuz, and its pilot was safely rescued, the officials said.
The crash occurred around the same time that an F-15E was shot down over Iran, where one crew member has already been recovered and search teams continue looking for the second.
Newsflash: Iran has uniformed soldiers and the US still is losing in the air. Ground troops are much weaker than air troops so expect way more casualties from a ground invasion. The US isn’t even prepared for drone combat it’s pathetic.
