F-15E shot down in Iran: second pilot rescued by special forces after 36 hours of search

U.S. special forces rescued the second crew member of the F-15E shot down in Iran after 36 hours of searching. The weapons systems officer made radio contact with U.S. forces shortly after ejecting. The rescue operation involved a specialized commando unit and was supported by heavy air cover, while the pilot had been recovered on Friday. This marks the first U.S. combat aircraft shot down by enemy fire since 2003.
