HOLY SHIT ITS AN IRANIAN MISSILE, FIRE EVERYTHING!
>>
is this officially the third time an F15 has been downed by anti aircraft?
in spite of the friendly fire I mean, cause last times were by Iraqi flak and an Iraqi SAM respectively
>>
Even the piss bottles?

Why did the previous thread get downed? Not too much shitposting, an occasional derail, but that's common.

If it gets in the engine, it can be. The spin pattern indicates asymmetric thrust, meaning one engine out while the other is still running. The structure is largely intact, and other vids still have lingering fire between the tail fins. All told, it looks like some sort of engine blowout. That's pretty localized damage for a missile strike. For the sake of not getting too autistic, I'll simplify to say that SAMs work by delivering a giant fucking birdshot shell to the vicinity of the aircraft and then firing. The results tend to be both extensive, and leave a distinct explosive aftermath in the vicinity of the aircraft. We can see a blast cloud in this video, but that matches with the cloud produced by the engine blowout in the other. If it was a SAM, we'd have a second cloud visible.

>well why are the americans there in the first palce?
Mostly goes back to the Cold War, and the region being split between US and USSR-aligned countries. We got oil, they got money, everybody's happy. Little bit of a hiccup with Saddam being a fucking retard, but we got that sorted out. Then Iran decided that they wanted to start handing out shit to every group of fuckwits willing to shoot them at Americans and their friends from Damascus to Kandahar, and now here we are at last.

It totally wouldn't be because of the most profitable trade routes and the presence of vastly rich oil states that are allied with the US now would it? Nah the US had no presence in the Middle East until Israel, never mind the weapons embargo the US had until the 1960's.

If it was a missile, we would have literally any of the telltale signs of one. Mechanical failure is still a possibility, but the most common cause of spontaneous engine detonation is a bird in the intake.

Do you have a suggestion? I have no particular horse in this race, but the full video doesn't look like any SAM or A2A hit that I've seen. It's a particularly dramatic one but I do believe an uncontained engine failure is likely, and a bird strike can do that.

Correct on both accounts, and it's worth keeping all possibilities in mind, but we do have two more videos that don't show any indications of a missile having been in the area in the last few seconds, either, especially at that low altitude where a SAM would have plenty of fuel left.
>>

Of course, that one's pretty zoomed in and doesn't show much anyway, but the other has the one smoke cloud we see ejected from the engine and that's it.

Dumbest take I've seen in a while. Genuinely how do you look at footage of a massive external detonation of a jet at altitude that causes immediate catastrophic loss of aircraft control, in a zone with air defence in active operation, and conclude its a bird strike? Is this bait or some shit?

go watch actual videos of missile hits, you can always see the missile and they usually proximity fuse rather than hitting directly.

>>
>>64919894
It's heavily zoomed in footage that's been through various upload and repost cycles, so you're not going to be able to see the missile. Also don't just look at iron dome footage where the missile is burning and smoke trailing all the way to the target, plenty of shorter to medium range defences don't burn all the way. The only thing you can see is an instantaneous explosion that easily goes wingtip to wingtip. I don't think there's ever been a case of a birdstrike that has caused such an immediate enormous uncontained engine failure, and if so you'd also see large chunks of airframe bursting out as a result, so it's pretty obviously an external hit. It is genuinely absurd to look at that explosion and think birdstrike, doubly so when as said, AIR DEFENCE WAS IN ACTIVE OPERATION AT THE TIME

>burning and smoke trailing all the way to the target
anything that has the range to be coasting to a target will be big enough to show on video without any smoke. S-300s are the size of fucking lamp posts. plus it'd be going like Mach 2, it can't all just stop dead in its tracks and should leave a trail of debris on the other side after impact which we don't see. refer to pic related for a missile interception, this looks absolutely nothing like that
>>
>>64920055
I guess nobody told them to Ku-wait and see
>>
>>64920636
Why the fuck are you still trying to argue when it's been publicly confirmed as friendly fire. Oh wait you were stupid enough to think it was a bird strike in the first place, so makes sense
>>
Given that the pilots all made it out, and the videos we do have don't show missile bodies prox fusing, do we think they got got by HTK PAC-3s?
