I love that aircraft. The Horten brothers had some fantastic designs.

Rgr that....if the Iranians make a habit of firing missiles into the sky I can envisage a few of the launch sites being terminated...with or without their agreement

Somehow, I doubt the Iranian claims are correct.

Well as of 25 minutes ago the US still hadn't responded.

The Iranians did instigate a similar claim in July.

In July, Iranian state-run media quoted an Iranian lawmaker who claimed that Iran shot down a U.S.spy aircraft near the Fordu nuclear site. Iran's Revolutionary Guard later refuted the report.

I want to see a picture of the wreckage with some kind of American markings.

Otherwise I am going to assume it was Israeli, since they use our equipment anyways.

Not saying good or bad, just seems that monkey ears Mahmoud has been trying to find a cassus belli on Israel since he came to power.

American meddling can certainly "justify" the measures him and his people dream of taking.

But Ghaddaffi was a much bigger threat? Or was he easier?

Wait until we leave Iraq, then he will really get bold
