Two-ship flight of USAF B-1 Lancer heavy bombers heading towards Iran with their transponders on.

Something looks VERY sus with this. > Sensor appears cooled, dynamic range set window oddly for sky? > Resolving AB plume details? > No secondary plume luminance against smooth background of space, should have some shimmer and effects visible immediately > Sensor bloom wrong.

Breaking from @halbritz @OrenCNN : A US F-35 fighter jet made an emergency landing at US air base in the Middle East after it was struck by what is believed to be Iranian fire, according to two sources familiar with the matter. Capt. Tim Hawkins, a spokesman for US Central Command, said the fifth-generation stealth jet was “flying a combat mission over Iran” when it was forced to make an emergency landing. Hawkins said the aircraft landed safely, and the incident is under investigation “The aircraft landed safely, and the pilot is in stable condition,” Hawkins added. The incident would be the first time Iran has hit a US aircraft in the war started in late February. Both the US and Israel are flying F-35s in the conflict; the aircraft costs upwards of $100 million.
