According to Iran’s Tasnim News Agency on the 21st, an American F-35 fighter jet was shot down by Iran’s domestically produced air defense system. The report quoted a source from the Iranian military saying, “The United States previously showcased the F-35 as a proud achievement of its military technology to the world, but this attack on the F-35 was carried out by Iran’s air defense system.” The source stated that the U.S. and Israel believed no air defense system could track and shoot down the F-35, but Iran’s domestically produced air defense system surprised them. The source also said that in the coming days, Iran will demonstrate its new capabilities to counter enemies. (Xinhua)
