The US has rescued a pilot from the fighter jet that was shot down over Iran, sources told CNN. The status of a second crew member was not immediately clear, as US search and rescue efforts continue. A CNN analysis of images published by Iranian media matches that of an F-15 aircraft.

The American pilots might be becoming overconfident and flying too low, but these American soldiers are really being put in a bad situation for no good reason .

 In a separate incident, a US A-10 Thunderbolt II military plane was struck by Iran, according to a US official. The US has now lost at least seven manned aircraft during the war.
