US military aircraft lost in Iraq amid ongoing operations, CENTCOM confirms

A U.S. aircraft has been reported lost in Iraq during ongoing military operations against Iran, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) announced Thursday.

This came on day 12 of Operation Epic Fury targeting Iranian-linked assets in the region.

According to CENTCOM, the incident involved two U.S. KC-135 refueling aircraft operating in friendly airspace. One of the aircraft went down in western Iraq, while the second landed safely.

CENTCOM said the loss was not the result of hostile fire or friendly fire. Rescue efforts are ongoing, and officials have not yet released details about the number or condition of personnel involved.

"More information will be made available as the situation develops. We ask for continued patience to gather additional details and provide clarity for the families of service members.," CENTCOM said in a statement.

100 M/s?  Unlikely.




I agree. I'm sure no military expert, but this sounds like an attempt at Iranian verbal intimidation.

CENTCOM has confirmed... a KC-135 has gone down.  Probably an accidental mid-air collision with a receiving aircraft, maybe during a nighttime refueling, which is inherently dangerous. 

KC-135 refueling aircraft went down over western Iraq, CENTCOM says

What the hell is your damage, dude?  Do you just get your kicks attacking other posters here and being a world class asshole?  If you can't contribute anything meaningful to the ongoing discussion without injecting your particular brand of nastiness into it, then you can just FO.  Jerk.

Well these things exist, as Bob pointed out, but yeah, Iran is just blustering as usual.  Putin probably promised to send some in exchange for the Shahed drones he got to shoot at Ukraine.

Same theory/premises of how UAPs always appear to be encased in a 'bubble'...which cancels all atmospheric resistance.

Somehow the torpedo bomb becomes shielded by a plasma bubble.   :shrug: :shrug:

@Wingnut a jerk?  He can be  but I've learned with years in this forum, he just has a very unique personality, funny, witty, down to earth, doesn't really hold a whole lot back, but a few times he's helped to keep me my emotions in check and has kept me grounded.  :beer:

We all have our quirks in here....it's been awhile though since @Cyber Liberty has set fire to some golf balls ....   happy77 :silly:

U.S. fired at Iranian vessel that approached aircraft carrier, officials say

U.S. fired at Iranian vessel that approached aircraft carrier, officials say
By

Updated on: March 12, 2026 / 7:56 PM EDT / CBS News

Washington — An Iranian vessel sailed too close to the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier, and the U.S. fired at the vessel, according to two U.S. officials briefed on the matter who spoke to CBS News under condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

The officials said a U.S. Navy vessel attempted to fire on the Iranian vessel using its 5-inch, 54-caliber Marck-45 gun, a fully automated naval cannon that is mounted to the forward deck of Navy destroyers and cruisers and has served as the fleet's standard deck gun since the early 1970s.

While it's not known which naval vessel fired on the Iranian ship, the officials said it missed multiple times.

A helicopter equipped with Hellfire missiles was launched and struck the Iranian vessel with two of the missiles.

The status of the Iranian ship and its crew is not known. The incident occurred earlier this week.

The USS Spruance and the USS Michael Murphy, both destroyers, are embarked with the Abraham Lincoln, which is operating in the Arabian Sea in support of U.S. military actions against Iran. However, six other guided-missile destroyers were operating in the Arabian Sea as of last week.
