Iran - Israel/US War: Israel-US declare war on Iran, Iran responds

[Kyussis]

Probably has survived to It. I wish that aircraft to be shoot down. But even if that managed to survived, no one other aircraft will be safe again. It was caught flying happily and without launching flares.
And finally that proofs that even US has no complete Air superiority over the country. It is a matter of time one of those low flying super Hornets or even A10 goes down.

How exactly does a single engine aircraft survive a missile strike that damages the engine?

I don't know what their friggin problem is I mean they hit and damage an F-35 in combat but take offense when calling out the video fake. AAA is just as good as missile hit it did the same job and that is a mission kill. That F-35 won't fly again until repaired.

I don't think you can repair an F-35 that easily, we don't know how much damage it sustained but plausibly takes more money to repair than it's worth.

It's confirmed everywhere that an Iranian made SAM system shot at and damaged the F-35?

If so, can you please share the link? I would like to educate myself.

I have seen no confirmation other than a video that cuts off at the time of the explosion of an F-35 having been damaged by a missile.

Yes, I agree an F-35 has been bit. That's not open for dispute. It's all over the news.

How exactly it was hit has not been confirmed IMO. That is the question that is still open for dispute.

Photos of the aircraft would help.

US sources admit it was likely hit by Iranian fire, no? video was released by IRGC. you can have doubts about it, but these are facts. the details of the interceptor, still unknown, sure.

Literally making it up as they go along.

video is fake not saying the news of a F-35 being hit is fake.

We're still waiting for any proofs or sources showing the video is fake or edited/AI

Bro', I'm not disputing that part.

What I'm still questioning is the manner of how the 35 was hit. Was it indeed a missile or perhaps AAA as it was making a gun run.

They don't have the cojones (balls) to do that if they did, they would never have fallen in to the trap of the Gulf war.

Which led to bases being established in the GCC region. American played Saddam into attacking Kuwait, and then stabbed him in the back which led to a bigger footprint in the GCC.

Allah (SWT) help guide us weak Muslim's to see the light, and follow the path of Islam more rigorously.

We both don't know how much damage it sustained but you're the only one that claims it can't be repaired that easily. I said until repaired didn't say when it will fly.

but plausibly takes more money to repair than it's worth.

How do you know if you don't know the damage it sustained?

How exactly does a single engine aircraft survive a missile strike that damages the engine?

If you check carefully the missile, being IR guided hit mostly the exhaust nozzle and part of the horizontal rudder.
Let's be honest, if the fighter fell we will see videos or debries. I want to believe Kyussis, I will be happier than you if I am mistaken. . Hope I Am.
