The Iranian officials have announced head money of near $1 million which the government has said would be granted by handing him over to them. The US rescue mission included two helicopters and an A-10 Warthog plane. One helicopter carrying the rescued pilot from the F-15E jet was hit by small arms fire, injuring crew members on board, but landed safely.\n\nThe post Has the F-15E pilot been rescued after Iranian fighter jets hit the warplane? appeared first on HUM News English.",
