WW-111 New World Order Begins- American's To Exist Israel Now.

The story out there is that the battery was being operated by the Kuwaities and they set it on automatic. No matter the cause somebody screwed the pooch
That's the story but they were likely shot down similar to the F-16 stories in Ukraine to save face.

Before flight, ground crew or aircrew load crypto keys (for secure modes like Mode 4/5) into the IFF using a fill device, and set required mission codes. In flight, when the fighter appears on someone’s radar, that radar or airborne interrogator sends a coded challenge. The jet’s transponder:
• Recognizes the interrogation mode and code.
• Uses its loaded crypto to generate a valid encrypted response if the challenge is correct.
• Transmits a reply on a reply frequency that includes ID, and in some modes altitude or other data.

In other words, US CENTCOM wants you to believe that the IFF on three planes failed or that the crews operating the Patriot missile batteries failed to recognize the IFF signals. If it was just one plane I would be inclined to believe CENTCOM’s explanation… But three? Sorry, this is Male Bovine Excrement.

Either way, that's not too bad of a loss and it seems pilots survived. Could have been way worse.

Key Considerations in Automatic Mode:
  • Speed is Essential: In automatic mode, the system can react to incoming threats at Mach 5, which travel one mile every second.
  • Risk of Friendly Fire: In the past, operating in automatic mode has led to tragic friendly-fire incidents (e.g., against aircraft) because the automated system, in a high-stress, low-time environment, did not correctly identify the target's "friend or foe" (IFF) signal

The US hasn't lost 3 aircraft on the same day since 'Nam. These 3 went down within the same hour, during the same time that USCENTCOM reported attacks from Iranian aircraft. Kuwait is also positioned within reach of Iranian air defense, which was active at the time. If this was friendly fire, then we might need to take some of these power toys away from our incompetent Arab friends before they zoink another $300 million of our aircraft...
 
Some think tank guy on NPR who was being interviewed yesterday talked about that very topic. It certainly makes sense, in fact it made me ease off some of my anger. If what he said is true, we basically have the Chicoms by the gonads now where energy is concerned. The larger question is how long will BiBi continue to have us by the gonads?
Maybe, it depends if Trump made some sort of a deal so China wouldn't get involved or if China just didn't want to.
 
Side note" The deadbeat Spain has had their rear end handed to them by trump. AS A NATO member they have refused to meet their pledge to the other NATO members. So trump is may be going to cut off all trade with Spain. Which he can do since the Supreme courts rulling on tariffs There is more about Spain, They stood on principle about not letting us refuel in spain because it's not in in in the nato mission which has nothing to or anything about Iran/middle east. I don't think deserve any respect from us.

I did not write the above very well. Sorry

This Iran thing is far from being over. I don't know how we can not be involved.

Correction I see we lost three aircraft to friendly fire. MY BAD
