Jordanian F-16 "Shot Down" by ISIS

Look they have a downed F-16 and people wonder "how was that possible?"
My reply "simple, just as they did with one of those Syrian MiGs".
There is no miracle stuff on F-16's, they are not flying faster or accelerate that much better than a MiG and they do no not have any science fiction "shield" around them or some hyper sensor detecting incoming AAA fire.

By the way, just few days ago "the aviationsist" website posted how low coalitions aircraft go. You can even hear the 30mm gun of an A-10 firing. So there is your reply about "coalition aircraft do not need to go that low".

Why did they went for that option? Who knows... I guess they thought the risk was affordable or they decided to spend some dumb iron bombs and save some LGB's or JDAM (remember it was a Jordan plane: they do not have unlimited free access to guided bombs as US, Israeli or NATO forces do, they have to import those things!)... or they needed to go low to properly identify the target.

***** happens.

shit is $45 million jet is bought down by $45,000 missile......

This was most likely a mechanical failure. Too soon to give Daesh credit for this.
It's such bitter news to wake up to.. And the amount of isis fanboys on Twitter and other places supporting this act is just disgusting.
 
IS has taken a treasure. They'll either make a propaganda video killing this poor guy or try to exchange him with a good dozen of their comrades who are possibly in Jordan's prisons.

Still wondering whether they actually shot it down or just a malfunction.

Wish we an identify these supporters on the web and deal with them like terrorists

These people are sick like terrorists themselves i have seen thier justification and praise for peshawar school massacre the governments fighting ISIS have more resources and technology to bypass thier encryption and pull them out of their holes
 
It took your homo boys 4 years to achieve.... nothing ! What makes you think your fellow homo boys in Syria will achieve anything in the future ?

Give it up mossa, you were the one who wanted to burn Shias, the only sectarian minded is you.


It is hard to be sectarian when you don't belong to any sect. Your words betray you Iranian. And your own sectarianism is plain for everyone to see.
 
Embedded media from this media site is no longer available

Here's the pilot (3rd walking in). Apparently He part of a big tribe so hopefully ISIS may exchange him.

Jordan jet was not shot down by ISIS: US military - Daily Sabah

The United States dismissed Wednesday a claim by the ISIS that it had shot down a Jordanian F-16 fighter flying with US-led coalition forces, which crashed in eastern Syria.

"Evidence clearly indicates that ISIS did not down the aircraft as the terrorist organization is claiming," said US Central Command, the body overseeing the coalition air war over Iraq and Syria.
