Iranian military hits US F-35 fighter jet for the first time
Iran has shot down an American F-35 fighter jet for the first time, CNN reports, citing sources.
A US Central Command spokesman confirmed that the aircraft made an emergency landing at a US air base in the Middle East while on a combat mission over Iran.
The plane landed safely, and the pilot is in stable condition. The incident is under investigation.
Let us recall that earlier in this war, several American F-15 fighters were accidentally shot down by allies.
