First to go down in Iran, but a surprising amount of attritions thus far

- 3x F-15 friendly fire

- 2x KC-130 refuel mid air collision (1 loss, 1 damaged)

- 1x F-35 damaged

- 1x AEWACs base strike

- 3x KC-130 base strike (same)

- 1x F-15 (this one)

2-3 a week is not great for the greatest military, more than half attributable to Iran.

With 300+ US casualties, that's ~10/day, a fatality every ~2 days. No boots on the ground (that we know of, sure there are some elite ops in the country)
