An Israel Air Force Adir fighter jet (F-35I) shot down an Iranian YAK-130 fighter jet above Tehran in the world's first-ever downing of a manned fighter jet by an F-35 fighter jet.
The IDF Spokesperson announced Wednesday morning that there had been an historic event in the skies over Tehran. An Israel Air Force Adir fighter jet (F-35I) shot down an Iranian YAK-130 fighter jet above the Iranian capital. This was the world's first-ever downing of a manned fighter jet by an F-35 fighter jet.
War has been declared and the propaganda fight is in full effect. But crowing about the F-35 getting a kill against a glorified trainer that can BARELY flex into light strike/air defense?
Historic dogfight?
Note to Public Information Officers. It is better at times to simply put out a news release with the naked facts. Spicing them up for the public that doesn't follow military affairs is a real rough road that can get you laughed at.
