USAF F-15E down! (picture)

looks beautiful.. lolz.. they should send it pakistan 4 studying purpose i mean how it went down and then may be we can use some its knowledge in our JF17zzz..

hehe..
 
It happened as follows:

The F-15 was flying over hostile territory and was shot down with an AA artillery (no SAM). The pilots ejected and an helicopter was sent to rescue them. A crowd of civilians approached to see/salute them, the crew panicked and opened fire. 6 killed or injured. Sad, but not surprising at all.
 
can anyone give any information on the rescue of the 2 pilots, was it conducted by USAF CSAR (Pararesceumen, PJs) I mean that is their primary job and they are VERY good at what they do but were they deployed in the area? Or was it USMC/USN SAR who have assists in the area operating of LHDs/LPDs/ACCs? The fact that both pilots were rescued so fast is very impressive and unique to the US, no other country has such reach.
 
WTF record are you talking about?
F15s HAVE BEEN SHOT DOWN BEFORE

In the gulf war. The perfect record is for Air to Air combat And I'm afraid that record still stands

it was not the pilots but the air rescue that fired from the air
the crowd were friendlies and they actually hugged the pilots and took them to the village. later on they were handed over th rebel forces from where they eventually met the rescue team

the shots were fired from the helicopters and note it was not 6 dead but injured.

I think this time around they won't present any excuses or false statement, its downed and clearly downed by the SAMs.
Well much of the records held by eagle had major contribution from less capable opponents. 101-0 may have include mostly Mig-21s,23s and 25s not worth opponents of F-15.
 
If I were the chinese.. Id send somebody with a few thousand dollars out there.. and just pick up those pretty much intact Aim-120C's.. and anything else..
 
Well come on it was bound to happen!!! Libya does have orite defences plus they are called SAMs for a reason, but who knew a Libyan SAM will take down Uncle Sam's bird :P
 
Shot down like a dead bird simply... lolz.. they are trying to cover it up as always as a tech failure thats what they are telling us on the local news here in the states.. lol
poor Old F-15s, we should send them top of the line high tech J-11B...:china:
 
According to some reports, this F-15 was flying at altitude of 22000 feet.
