  "textContent": "Three U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagles went down over Kuwait on March 2 during Operation Epic Fury, the U.S. campaign against Iran, but all aircrew ejected safely, U.S. officials told Air & Space Forces Magazine. U.S. Central Command confirmed the incident in a release and said it was an “apparent” case of friendly fire with the fighters shot down by Kuwait air defenses. The F-15Es were engaged in “active combat” against Iranian “aircraft, ballistic missiles, and drones” strikes.\n\nThe post Three US F-15Es Shot Down by Kuwaiti Friendly Fire; Crews Safe appeared first on Air & Space Forces Magazine.",
