Iran has successfully shot down about seven US aircraft, including helicopters and drones, in the past two days.
According to the International News Agency, the Iranian military command said that a new air defense system has been deployed, which aims to target US aircraft that previously escaped.
The statement added that this new air defense system successfully targeted US aircraft, helicopters and drones on Friday. One American pilot is still missing.
Iranian officials claim that despite the air superiority of the US and Israel during the war that has lasted for more than a month, Iran will now gain full control of its airspace.
According to Iranian state media, US President Donald Trump and US Defense Secretary Pat Hegseth had previously claimed full control of Iran’s airspace, but the recent statement by Iranian officials has proven these claims wrong.
It should be remembered that 7 American warplanes have been destroyed so far in the war that began on February 28, which is considered a major success for Iran.
