Iran’s top joint military command claimed on Friday that its advanced new air defense system was responsible for shooting down two US warplanes. The state news agency IRNA reported that one of the aircraft was an F-15E flying over southwestern Iran, while the other, an A-10 Warthog, was participating in a rescue mission for the first aircraft’s crew.

According to IRNA, military spokesperson Ebrahim Zulfaqari described the incident as a major humiliation for the United States and Israel. He credited Iran’s domestically developed air defense technology for the success and said the new systems were being deployed across the country to ensure full control of Iranian airspace.

The US Central Command (CENTCOM) has not yet officially confirmed any details regarding the reported downing of the aircraft, leaving key aspects of the incident unverified.
