US F-35 ‘Hit’ While Responding To Burning American Vessel? Shock Emergency Near Hormuz | WATCH
Fresh tensions are rising in the Middle East after Iranian state media reported that a US Air Force Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II declared an in-flight emergency while flying over the Sea of Oman near the strategically critical Strait of Hormuz. According to reports from Iranian outlets Fars News Agency and Tasnim, the stealth fighter reportedly squawked emergency transponder code 7700 — an internationally recognized signal indicating a serious emergency requiring immediate assistance and priority landing clearance. The exact reason behind the emergency remains unknown. Aviation experts note that a 7700 squawk can be triggered by mechanical failure, medical emergencies, or possible combat-related damage. The US military has not publicly commented on the reported incident, while the final status of the aircraft remains unverified.
