Israeli Air Force's F-35 Shoots Down Iranian Jet Over TehranAn Israeli Air Force F-35 fighter jet shot down a Russian-made Iranian Yak-130 jet over Tehran, the Israel Defense Forces said Wednesday amid an escalating war after Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed in a joint US-Israel airstrikes last week.

It marks the first-ever downing of a manned aircraft by an F-35.

It also marks the first time in nearly 40 years that the Israeli Air Force has engaged in air-to-air combat with a manned aircraft.


Iran has fired regular salvoes of missiles and drones missiles at Israel, though most of the incoming fire has been intercepted. Eleven people in Israel have been killed since the conflict began.

Earlier today, Israel said it was conducting a series of strikes across Tehran targeting Iranian security forces, the day after it hit a building associated with the clerical panel that will pick Iran's next supreme leader in the city of Qom.

The Israeli military also said it hit buildings in Tehran associated with the Basij, the all-volunteer force of Iran's paramilitary Revolutionary Guard that conducted the bloody crackdown on protesters in January that killed thousands and saw tens of thousands detained in the country.

Five days into a war that US President Donald Trump suggested could last a month or longer, nearly 800 people have been killed in Iran, including some Trump said he had considered as possible future leaders of the country.

Israel keeps embarrassing Russian/iranian weapons systems left and right, both in real combat and in every analysis that follows. They're getting exposed as overhyped garbage.

Even in dogfights, Iranian pilots are undertrained.
Iran is going to bitterly regret relying so hard on Russian hardware.

They are not a match for the Israeli war toys even in the many aerial dogfights.

What brought Russia into this though?..... The obvious reason is that Israeli pilots are more professional than Iranians one's but ur agenda must agend.

Read to understand boy. A Russian-made Iranian Yak-130 is exactly what it sounds like. Built in Russia, bought by Iran a couple years back to modernize their air force and train pilots for their old MiGs/Su- fighters.

I brought Russia in because an Israeli F-35 shot one of these Yak-130s over Tehran. A Russia piece of nonsense. What are you crying about? Fix your forehead son.

In war, these two are incomparable. The F -35 is miles ahead of Mak m- 130. F 35 are built for combat. Some people don't even know this

Pele ooo!!
BT it cannot stop Iranian cheap missiles nd drowns from devastating it's cities🤣🤣
Re: Israeli Air Force's F-35 Shoots Down Iranian Jet Over Tehran by fineboynl(m):
Isreal will never allow any jet in it airspace they will go down before they even leave Iran.

Iran is just too ashamed to raise the white flag. So they may want to save face. But the truth remain that they can't win and the more they delay the more they are destroying themselves
Re: Israeli Air Force's F-35 Shoots Down Iranian Jet Over Tehran by mikeapollo: 1:31pm On Mar 04
Iran is making a big mistake by thinking that all it takes to be strong is to build missiles and nuclear bomb but forgetting that the basics must be very strong: very strong air force, warfare technology, military intelligence. Without these foundation, you cannot fight an international war against someone who does not share land borders with you.
Israel is dominating Iranian airspace
Israel is bombing from Iranian airspace
Iran cannot fly aircraft in their own territory
Iran cannot shoot down Israeli warplane ....etc

Meanwhile. US has destroyed all the naval ships of Iran!

So how does the Iran govt think they can win this war?

Imagine Nigeria is in a conflict with another country and they shoot down one of the NAF Super Tucanos which we procured recently from the US.... And then someone uses that event as a basis to ridicule US air force.

That's how ridiculously childish your narrative sounds by dragging Russia into this.

The way we Nigerians carry this war for head. grin Very soon the prices of pms and other products will increase courtesy of this war. Just look at the way the whole world is affected by this war. I hope there won't be another economic depression as experienced under George Bush.

It's not going to be funny considering the amount of debt being owed by this present government.
