BREAKING: U.S. CSAR Teams Pull Off Daring Double Rescue of Both Downed F-15E Airmen in Iran

American combat search and rescue forces charged deep into enemy Iranian territory and successfully pulled both crew members from a U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle shot down during Operation Epic Fury.

The jet from the 494th Fighter Squadron took a hit from Iranian defenses while hammering regime targets. Both the pilot and weapons systems officer ejected into rugged southwestern mountains where Iranian forces and militias were hunting them down.

A first CSAR team grabbed one airman under heavy fire. A second team went back in, flying low in HH-60W Jolly Green II helicopters supported by HC-130J tankers while dodging MANPADS and ground fire. A-10 Warthogs laid down suppressive fire to cover the extraction. Both Americans are now safe in Iraq and in good hands.

This marks the first confirmed U.S. manned aircraft loss over Iran in the fighting, even as CENTCOM had pushed back on earlier rumors of additional losses. Once again, American forces proved they never leave their own behind, no matter how deep behind enemy lines or how hot the ground fire gets.

Our warriors showed raw courage against a bloodthirsty regime that cheers every shot at Americans. The mullahs may brag about downing a Strike Eagle, but they failed to keep our airmen. U.S. rescue teams just walked right in and took them home.

The savage IRGC must be foaming at the mouth that they didn’t get to rape these gallant beauties.

Rape is their torture tool for females.

Nonetheless, the US should put a pause on NATO and train their military with Isreal, Iraq, Ukraine and Syria, they have a lot to teach about ruthlessness and gallantry.

The EU is full of hot air. Iran would’ve taken out the EU seamlessly. Putin was never fazed by the EU threats.

Super women.


I keep wondering why Israel and America's Air forces have more of women pilots.



America is no country's mate.


Iran haven't angered Americans enough.



Majority of Americans and their Senators and elites are against the war in Iran.


Imagine when US Senate and majority of Americans vote in favour of US invading or attacking a nation, that nation will be a toast, be it Russia, China or a combination of them all with their proxy terror wing called Iran cheesy

Why do you want Iran to fall? Oh okay, you are their Judge, jury, and executioner abi? See you Christian life? If terrorists in Nigeria killed your people, does that mean they are Iranians? You people should learn how to judge things the right way, Iran is a sovereign Nation for Christ's sake!

Attacking them or trying to coerce them into signing a deal that would benefit the US is an act of war and oppression. There is no monopoly of violence if you don't know that. Kiss the truth!

Now you are saying they were rescued when through out yesterday, you were denying the fact that the F-15 was shot down.

Continue to dey do your mumu propaganda

Is an F15 fighter jets same as the F35 you lied about yesterday?

Esnbrutality was spot on with virtually all his predictions. You on the other hand are just a person that scrounge the internet to reproduce what uou belive is factual based on your weak and bigoted mindset.

You are not reliable as lies are your second past time. You too lie. cheesy

If you watch U.S. military movies, you’ll notice they always go back for their ejected pilots. This operation looks more like a mop-up mission in preparation for a ground invasion or paratrooper deployment. I’m surprised the AC-130 wasn’t used; instead, they opted for the A-10 Warthog, which was eventually shot down over the strait.

Copium .

Did the shoot down a USAF jet or not?

Also in same thread which I was pushing as events unfolded, I corrected the first assumption from an F-35 to an F-15.

Most people thought it was an F-35 given it was operating close to the Iranian border due to its percieved stealth cover but now we know it was an F-15 and all F-35s have been withdrawn since the last one was taken out by same Iranian heat seeking missiles.

You go cope tire.

Which f35 was downed again..liar liar propaganda merchant.

Its best you go and sleep ooo...

HBP is a confirmation of stress. You are obviously stressed.

Is it TTRUE that it was women that where flying those jets? While a man like you is busy looking for propaganda to look good?

Gender equality pro max is what America is showing you terrorists.

Women are flying the jets that exterminated your IRGC..see levels!!! grin

I told them that America is not at war with Iran and everyone came for my head. If America decides to go all out on Iran, 48hours will be too much to turn the country to a desert.

This post may not make front page.
E go give terrorist sympathizers sleepless nights

Now they will know who the real bosses are.

Why will I never forgive this terrorist Iranian regime?
In 2010, the DSS formerly known as the SSS intercepted ammunitions in Nigeria making its way to terrorists from Iran. The Iranian who was linked to this crime was TRIED, CONVICTED and JAILED but I heard somehow he was released, and somehow Nigeria quietly restored relations with Iran.

How do you support and restore relations with a country smuggling arms to terrorists to kill your citizens.
How the terrorist sympathizers support Iran here on Nairaland is amazing. Is it out of ignorance or what?
