Two Iranian Su-25 fighter jets fired on an unarmed U.S. Air Force Predator drone in the Persian Gulf last week, CNN has learned.

The incident raises fresh concerns within the Obama administration about Iranian military aggression in crucial Gulf oil shipping lanes.


The drone was in international airspace east of Kuwait, U.S. officials said, adding it was engaged in routine maritime surveillance.
Although the drone was not hit, the Pentagon is concerned.
Two U.S. officials explained the jets were part of Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps force, which has been more confrontational than regular Iranian military forces.

There is no conflict that a little negotiations without preconditions couldn't solve.

Next time, they will shoot down the jets and neither side will say a word about it. A few months later, they will put up pictures of the dead pilots claiming they lost their lives during the 8 year war with Iraq.

It has happened before.

LOL. That was good.

That explains those out of place photos in a recent parade.

election is finished and now it is back to the cat and mouse show by iran and the west. for a few weeks there were no mentions of iran and war and right after election they picked up where they left it.

this whole thing with iran and west is orchestrated by both side as it feeds well into the agenda of the two sides. both sides need each other just as much as the other side.

How did they miss an unarmed, slow, piston engined drone with two jet fighters blasting away? Should have been like shooting fish in a barrel.

نه جناب
برعکس زدن اینگونه هواپیماها خیلی سخت است

The intention was not to bring it down but to warn it

no its very easy, the US predator could have been easily brought down by SU25 pilots even if they lacked the most basic gunery skills

خیر جناب
اشتباه نکنید
زدن هواپیماهای بدون سرنشین به این اسانی ها که شما فکر میکنید نیست
اولا شناسایی ان بسیار مشکل است
دوم از ان هدف قرار دادن ان کار اسانی نیست
چنانکه هواپیمای بدون سرنشین ایرانی که حزب الله به روی اسرائیل فرستاد سه ساعت کامل در روی اسرائیل بود بدون اینکه کشف شود
بعد از انکه کشف شد
برای سقوط ان سه فروند از پیشرفته ترین هواپیماهای اسرائیلی وارد کار شدند که در اخر تنها با نزدیک شدن به ان توانستند انرا مورد هدف قرار دهند
خود اسرائیل از دشوار بودن زدن چنین هواپیماهایی خبر داده است
و این دوازدهمین هواپیمایی بوده که از طرف حزب الله وارد خاک اسرائیل شده
چند تای انها را کشف کردند ولی نتوانستند بزنند
این فیلم را نگاه کنید
دها هواپیمای پیشرفته امریکایی و رادرهای دقیق نتوانستند این هواپیمای بدون سرنشین ایرانی که حکما به پیشرفتگی هواپیمای امریکایی بدون سرنشین نیست را رصد کنند
ووقتی هم که رصد کردند شش هفت هواپیما نتوانستند انرا سرنگون کنند و برگشت

Ah, they are so considerate. Truly a gentleman.

no military pilot miss fire 30mm rounds in such slow and steady aircraft like the predator.it was warning shots to leave iran airspace, because you can't make visual or radio contact with a unmanned aircraft.a perfect use by the iranian pilots of the rules of engagement.

Yep.. and shooting it down would give the republicans and the other warmongers in that damned land an excuse to increase the pressure on Iran

The situation should have been like this

Iran's airforce is weak. Old farssodeh planes, untrained pilots (who like to eat chelokakbab before the flights) and yes the can shoot only a 'warning' shots to a drone. Very impressive. One US aircraft carrier can change the Iranian regime. One US attack sub can finish off Iran's 'mighty' airforce with multiple tomohawk launch. The Iranian gov simply like to tell about these 'exercises' in order to let the people know that they are in charge. But the people of Iran has forgotten that their tax Dollars have been stollen by this regimes and sitting in banks in far east banks. The mullahs have turned the mighty Persian empire into one big toilet!

جناب
در این که می فرمایید نیروی هوایی ایران ضعیف است حق با شماست و حرفی توی ان نیست
ولی اینطور هم نیست که یک ناو هواپیما بر امریکایی بتواند کار ایران را تمام کند اگر اینطور بود تا الان کرده بود
بر عکس ایران می تواند مشکلات زیادی را برای امریکا در خلیج فارس بوجود اورد و امریکا بخوبی این را می داند
الان امریکا در خلیج از ایران حساب می برد

Timsar, here is the grandieus plan of the USA. The USA will be THE major oil producer and exporter by 2020. Which means if the middle eastern countries blow each other up and can no longer produce and export oil to the world, guess who will? THE USA at $200-$300 barrel!
