0:00On April 4th, Iran just dropped fresh picks of a wrecked US F-15E strike eagle they shot down Friday with air defenses. This marks the first American plane lost in the conflict during heavy fighting that also took out an A-10 warthog. Both jets had pilots eject, one from the F-15E got rescued quick, but the second one still missing after bailing out over enemy turf. Those new images hit from the Iranian embassy in Kabul, showing burnt debris scattered across empty land, with dude stepping on busted parts. Their caption straight taunted, calling the jet a scrap pile that ain't invisible no more, hyping their aerospace crew. Iranians are hyped, flashing $60,000 bounties for the pilot's capture, or worse, urging locals to hunt him down. State media shows militias and nomads from the Bhaktiari tribes scouring hills with rifles, while broadcasters scream, shoot on sight. Even the parliamentary speaker clown Trump, mocking his windclaims is now just begging to find their pilots. This all blew up two days after
1:02Trump bragged the US beat and decimated Iran. The F-15E went down about 100 miles from the Iraq border during a routine run, and now the White House is wargaming, worst cases like a hostage grab, with Intel saying Iran's missiles and drones ain't fully wrecked. Tensions stay sky high as the six-week war rattles global economies, with Iran hitting golf energy spots and choking the straight-of-form moves, that key. Lane for one-fifth of world oil, rescue ops race on, but every hour ramps the stakes for everyone involved.
