Has Iran brought down an ‘unkillable’ US F-35 jet?

AI Summary

short article 1 min

In March 2026, NewsFeedIran reported striking a U.S. F-35 jet and released footage purportedly showing the incident. The Pentagon has confirmed that an F-35 made an emergency landing on the same date. However, the cause of the emergency landing is currently under investigation by the Pentagon. If NewsFeedIran's claim is verified, this would represent the first confirmed combat hit on the F-35. Al Jazeera's Nour Hegazy is reporting on the situation.
