    It was ashamed of killing women and children and it self destructed.

      I wish they were recovered by sharks. I hope to hear a new uss Indianapolis Robert shaw type monologue in a future movie.

    thats a cool and easy $240 million. the missiles used to shoot them down probably cost have that much too. i wonder how much money the Yemenise military has spent blockading the red sea for the entire last year.

      If I were in their shoes

        Ansar Allah: “We just shot down your jet”

        US Navy: “No chance that a bunch of slur slur slur shot down our superior American technology and pilots. WE DID IT, we shot it ourselves 😤”

        No, no, they could’ve just mistaken them for more of those ubiquitous Hamas jets.

        Lots of enemy jets in the area they have to constantly shoot down.

        My angle was, we engaged in battle and our jet went down is better than we are oafs but yeah, I forget the racism element.

    Uncritical support for the genocidal American empire in its heroic struggle against the genocidal American empire.

      Confirmed, Ansar Allah has claimed responsibility for shooting down the jets.
