Let's go 100,000 foot first of all.

This could have been a mechanical issue.

I had a right engine fail in my F-18 in Operation Southern Watch.

No flies on mission over Iraq.

I couldn't limp all the way back to the carrier.

I barely made it to Kuwait International.

So this could have been a mechanical issue.

Of course, Iran's going to claim no matter what that they shot one of our aircraft down.

So it could be mechanical.

Something else.

You just showed a video of our CSAR, right, Combat Search and Rescue.

There was an HC-130, and it looked like two of the Jolly Greens, the HH-60s, refueling from the wings.

So the the vaunted Iranian air defense, they would not be flying at that low of an altitude if we did not have air superiority.

So, again, you know, the first casualty in combat is even even.

Well, they would be.

They would be down at that altitude.

But if the Iranian air defenses were so great and their AAA anti-aircraft artillery, those are sitting ducks, right?

So I'm leaning towards mechanical, but it doesn't matter at this point if they did get shot down.

The instant that that air crew ejected, Megan, a well-oiled machine kicks into operation.

The CSAR, the Combat Search and Rescue Forces of the United States Air Force, are some of the most elite forces.
