The crash of an American F-16 fighter jet in the state of New Mexico on Tuesday (Tehran time) increased the number of crashes in the country in the last two months to at least seven.

At least seven F-16 fighter jets have crashed in the past 60 days, Sputnik news agency reported, citing US officials and the media.

This morning, Tehran time, it was reported that a US Air Force F-16 Model C fighter jet crashed while attempting to land at New Mexico State Air Force Base.

According to American media and officials, the pilot was able to "eject" and save his life before it crashed and collided, and of course he was injured.

"No details have been released on the cause of the crash, but it has added to the troublesome recent incident involving US Air and Navy aircraft," Sputnik reported.

According to the report, at least seven American fighters, including the F-15, F-18, F-22 and F-35, have crashed in the last 60 days.

The following is a list of six other American fighter jets that have crashed in the past two months:

The US F-16 CM crashed during a training mission at Shaw Air Force Base in South Carolina on June 30, killing its pilot.

On June 18, a F-18 fighter crashed into the Philippine Sea, but two of its pilots were able to eject before crashing.

On June 15, a US F-15 fighter jet crashed off the coast of the Northern region, killing its pilot and eventually the wreckage was found bt the British Coast Guards.

June 9, It was reported that an F-35 fighter crashed at Hill Air Base in the country and overturned when the aircraft landed.

An American F-35 fighter also crashed during a training flight on May 19, but the pilot was rescued.

On May 15, a US F-22 fighter jet crashed 20 km from Eglin Air Force Base in western Florida.

The superpower fails to keep its airforce funcrional. 7 crashes in 2 month only.

In average USA loses nearly 42 fighter jets per year. In 10 years they are going to lose 420 fighters if they don't consider useful Solutions.

Lame analysis to say the least, US produces more fighter aircraft than rest of the world, so even if it crashes of say 20-30 aircraft, it produces more than 150 per year so except for f22 all other fighters are in process of replacement.

What a stupid extrapolation. They will find the failer, and problem is solved. USA is not Iran. Human error is always possible.

When you have big Airforce, crashes happens in large numbers. It depends on fly hours too. Maintaining large force of birds not an easy job.

If you are to emotional (hate), you are not able to use your brain rational.

Iranian mathematics.

No not yet we will have to crash seven a month for a few years to catch up with supa powa India.

Nope, you have far surpassed our record. I doubt we have ever crashed 7 jets in 2 months. Maybe 4-5 yes, that too mostly mig 21s that are 40-50 years old. Crashing far newer aircraft despite having the largest military budget in the world (like 10 times ours) is a new low, doubt IAF will ever beat that shitty record. We crash jets because they are old and we don't have the money to buy new ones. Corruption in buying spare parts is another reason. You crash jets because your pilots are simply stupid and incompetent.

Well no shit, 1971 was war time :lol: Should i bring up the Vietnam war? I believe the number of US aircraft(jets, helicopters, others) downed was 10 multiplied by a thousand. :rofl:
