Iranian Air Defense and F-35: Speculation Mounts on Majid System and Russian Involvement
Available evidence suggests Iran successfully struck a fifth-generation American F-35 fighter jet, which sustained damage but maintained control and continued its flight. A thermal imaging video released by the IRGC depicts a missile detonating near the F-35. While the U.S. Air Force has not officially commented, media outlets report confirmation from sources that the F-35 made an emergency landing after sustaining damage. The incident raises questions about the specific Iranian air defense system used, as this would mark a significant first for the F-35 aircraft.
