A US F-15E was shot down over Iran, and both crew members ejected. The pilot was recovered, while the weapons-systems officer remained missing. The episode demonstrated that US air superiority did not remove the risks of combat for aircrew or the people living in the search area. The event is dated to the aircraftโ€™s loss, distinct from the later rescue.
