> Three US fighter jets taking part in the ongoing operations against Iran were „mistakenly“ shot down by Kuwaiti air defence this morning, the Pentagon said on Monday, describing it as an „apparent friendly fire incident.“
Relevant announcement by U.S. Central Command here: [https://www.centcom.mil/MEDIA/PRESS-RELEASES/Press-Release-View/Article/4418568/three-us-f-15s-involved-in-friendly-fire-incident-in-kuwait-pilots-safe/](https://www.centcom.mil/MEDIA/PRESS-RELEASES/Press-Release-View/Article/4418568/three-us-f-15s-involved-in-friendly-fire-incident-in-kuwait-pilots-safe/)
Who would believe that the safer way to Iran is through Iraq
Trumps midterms just get more and more brutal, because Iran aren’t exactly surrendering and the optics coming out look perplexing. People are still talking about the Paedophile island he wanted them to forget about too.
🤦♂️
At least the pilots are OK.
At least Kuwait can be confident – their shit actually works. Tried and tested.
I never would have thought though that Kuwait is deadlier to the US than Iran.
Who needs enemies when you got allies this incompetent?
Every single post about this keeps getting deleted for some reason
Let me get this straight – currently in this war Kuwait is responsible for the majority of materiel (so excluding human life) losses incurred by the US?
Good to see the Kuwaitis keeping alive the American tradition of friendly fire.
The US military’s biggest enemy in the Middle East isn’t the Iranian army — it’s the joke armies of these Middle Eastern Gulf monarchies/sheikhdoms.
„Aircrafts from the 1970s? Must be Iranian, shoot them down“.
The US on the other side of friendly fire for once.
You would think they would do something after the first incident, perhaps after the second, but three???
About $90-$100M each so $300M of our tax dollars literally up in smoke. At least the pilots are ok, which is good.
🤦♂️
They look like flat spins.
(Goose!!!)
So, Kuwait’s army chief becomes a field marshal I guess ?
Trump doesn’t care about any of those people or any American for that matter. It’s time to remove him from power
It’s good that the pilots were able to eject safely, at least. The bad news is that it shows a severe lack of preparation and planning on the part of US and regional allies. The fish is rotting from the head-down where corruption is concerned, clearly. Compare the chaos now to when Iran and Israel were exchanging missiles in April of 2024; US forces participated then, and there wasn’t friendly fire like this.
There are also several reports claiming these were shot down by iranian missiles. Of course we don’t have a way of verifying the truth unless more credible evidence comes up but 3 jets being shot down by friendly fire in a single day does sound a bit ridiculous.
Yes, good old ‚friendly-fire‘.
I really hope those are old and worn out F-15C’s, not planes fresh of the production line. Glad the pilots are okay regardless.
Yet another lesson in how war is chaos, especially in the modern age. For all of us who like to laugh at the Russians for shooting their own planes down…..behold the amazing notion that all sides make mistakes.
Does friendly fire count as a loss?
Kuwait just ruined the F-15’s perfect K/D streak.
That’s a strange event. Aren’t Kuwait air defenses also exclusively US-made? I remember reading that this can’t just happen easily, as each aircraft has an ID that air defenses can check to identify if it’s friendly or not.
