A US Air Pressure A-10 Thunderbolt II was shot down in Iran whereas trying to rescue crew members from the downed F-15 Strike Eagle fighter jet. In keeping with US officers, the pilot safely ejected over pleasant territory and was unhurt.
Often known as the Warthog, the A-10 has been in service since 1977… however the Air Pressure has been pushing to retire it from service, deeming the plane out of date.
