US fighter jet downed in Iran
The downing of the two-seater fighter jet over Khuzestan Province represents the first confirmed loss of an American aircraft inside Iranian territory since hostilities commenced.
While US officials confirmed the rescue of one pilot, Iranian state media has claimed the capture of the second and offered bounties for survivors.
President Trump has been briefed on the incident, which underscores the lethal efficacy of modern air defenses despite Pentagon claims of air superiority.
Frantic search and rescue operations are currently underway, with reports suggesting a US helicopter involved in the mission may also have been targeted.
