[Expert Analysis: Two US Fighter Jets May Be Related] According to reports from the Iranian military and the United States, on April 3rd local time, two US military aircraft crashed in Iran, including an F-series fighter jet and an A-10 attack aircraft. CCTV military observer Wei Dongxu stated that air defense combat videos released by the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps show an aerial target highly similar in appearance to an A-10 attack aircraft being locked onto by Iranian air defense systems and subsequently shot down. The A-10 attack aircraft's entry into the relevant area for combat operations may be related to the downing of the F-15E fighter jet. After the F-15E pilot ejected, US rescue forces would arrive in the area to rescue him. In this situation, he would need an air support platform. Therefore, this F-15E downing incident has already triggered a series of chain reactions, making the entry of US aircraft into Iranian airspace even more dangerous. (CCTV News)
