Former President Donald Trump hailed the US military's rescue of both crew members from an F-15E fighter jet downed by Iranian air defenses near Isfahan as 'one of the most daring' operations in history. The pilot was extracted shortly after the crash, while the wounded weapons systems officer—a colonel—evaded capture for nearly 48 hours using survival training before rescue from remote mountains. Iran offered rewards for the crew's capture, as Chinese experts noted the downing boosts Tehran's morale and air-defense prowess.
