Oh boy! It was just a matter of time…I pray for this pilot’s safety

A U.S. official tells MS NOW the U.S. military is conducting a search operation for an American pilot inside Iran. MS NOW Senior National Security Reporter David Rohde brings the latest. MS NOW National Security Analyst Marc Polymeropoulos and retired U.S. Army Lieutenant General Steph Twitty join Ali Vitali with their reaction.

So Iran is making some startling claims.

They claim to have recently “locked on to an F-35 with their radar. The F-35 is an advanced stealth fighter—to lock on to it would require classified data and technology no one believed they had. But it gets worse: they claimed to have shot down a second F-35 and to have the pilot in their custody.

They are also claiming to have downed a Blackhawk helicopter.

I am hoping that these are false claims, but I fear that there’s more to it than a bluff.
@KunsanVeteran Something China is doing that was science fiction when the F35 and F22 were designed is using AI to combine radar data from multiple bands to achieve target lock.

Ai could also run probability on radar hits and determine what is most likely hostile.

Things are really changing fast.
@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Don’t ya just feel nice and secure knowing that Demented Donnie and Kegsbreath are leading our forces?

Me neither…

He went on to say “This is the greatest geopolitical disaster, I believe, in the history of America!”
Two of the US helicopters in the search for the downed F-15 crew member have been struck by Iranian fire as of 2 hours ago.
Iran is now claiming to have captured a US pilot who ejected from an F-35. I don’t know if this is the other crew member from the F-15?

I have no idea as to the validity of the claim other than CNN has picked up the story now.

State media in Iran was offering rewards for capturing the crew member downed and was broadcasting not to injury the American service member.

This is a bad development all the way around. Hopefully a 3rd country (e.g. Pakistan) can intervene diplomatically.

Can you summarize?
@H1raeth I can say that one crew member has been rescued. Attempts to rescue the second are on going.
We are hearing nothing about the plane wreckage. Presumably, the second crew members body was not among it?
This complicates and escalates his illegal war of aggression that is causing tRUMP and Kegsbreath so much grief and gnashing of teeth.

Both of whom are under tremendous pressure for their brash attack on Iran when they are under great strain of their own making.

No blaming Obama, Hillary, Joe Biden or Hunter’s laptop this time!

If any legitimate diplomatic efforts are being made to end this madness they sure are doing a great job of hiding them!

This is reminiscent of tRUMP’s first misadministration when he tried to end Obamacare only to be exposed as totally ignorant with his statement on record that “…who would have thought that health insurance could be so complicated? Clearly: tRUMP hadn’t thought…

Only now it is WAR ! A war of tRUMP’s choice when his own INTEL sources told him that there was no imminent threat. The inflammatory remarks he just made (and Kegsbreath echoed) about “bombing the Iranians back to the Stone Age” helped set the stage for this disaster.
This just keeps getting crazier and crazier—reports of an A-10 Warthog down now. Nothing more on the supposed F-35 and Blackhawk.

Demented Donnie has been “briefed”…wonder if he stayed awake?
