All stories on Ukraine airliner tragedy

i think they thought it as u.s b52 bomber over iran ,It shows how much afraid iran was regarding u.s response.they have joined indian club who also downed their own helicopter on 27 feb due to fear of Paf response
 
In past syrian airdefense also downed russian plane due to misunderstanding so this is normal for russians
 
I can't believe Pirouz Hoodbouy would cheer for civilian deaths.

What a terrorist
 
That's sad, Irani general of Air defense should be punished for this negligence.

Maybe the US can send another drone strike and kill this General......

Seriously though, someone need to be punished, I cannot even imagine how this could be an accidental shot down, the plane literally just take off from an Iranian Airport, there must be constant communication between the plane and the ATC in Iran, there are no way they will see it as an unknown bogey, either aircraft take off without talking to Iranian ATC, or Iranian ATC was not connected to the Military Network, or someone behind the button gets trigger happy, I don't see how this could be an accidental shot down, unless it was the one of the monumental cork up I mentioned...
 
Both seemed to be in a D!ck Measuring Contest and proved that both are Royal A-holes.

Iran would've come out on top had they not of made this kind of blunder.

Shooting down of a Commercial Airliner proves that Iranians are just as clueless and have incompetent morons who can't coordinate between the Air Traffic Controllers of Arrivals/Departure.

Iran is notorious for stringing up individuals on cranes. I wonder what the Military does to these jackasses.

Obviously they won't get a Medal. Only India reserves the rights to Award people for failure.
 
Is that a joke? They are say as indians
Unprofessional army!!!
 
This is very sad and unprofessional of Iranian armed forces. A year ago Pakistan was in the same predicament where India intentionally sent a civilian airplane with a military call sign so that Pakistan would shot it down and we had every right to do so because we were in a state of war yet when the Air Control Tower notified Pakistan air force, we intercepted the flight instead of shooting it down only to find out its a civilian jet belonging to Spice Jet and we escorted it out thus saving over a hundred life. In Iran's case the airplane was taking off from Iranian airport than how come a) A civilian jet was allowed to takeoff in such heightened situation and b) why was the Iranian air force and Air defense not aware? These are some serious questions that Iran would have to ask itself and raises serious questions about the capability of Iranian systems specially in identifying between civilian and hostile air crafts.
My sincere condolences to the families of the victims.
 
lesson for you guys , build your own system. Russia produce cheap junk. You can't trust Russia R&D. TOR M, S300 or S400 .... untested very expensive weapons. Only Russian weapon which has good success rate ..was PANTSIR 1.
 
Now the question is, did Iran not know a SAM was fired? Looks like Iran doesn’t have good control over ADS. We also need to consider there might be rogue actors in the military
