UPDATE: CENTCOM denies this report…
According to various reports on X, a U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle reportedly crashed early Wednesday during a strike mission over southwestern Iran, possibly due to Iranian air defenses.
Both crew members reportedly ejected safely, and a U.S.–Israeli combat search and rescue (CSAR) team reportedly entered Iran about an hour later and recovered them.
However, U.S. officials speaking to The Washington Post rejected the claim.
Official confirmation from U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) remains pending.

Alexander Vandegrift that he wouldn’t be recalled unless the United States got into another war.
