Pentagon releases video of September 13 rescue of downed F-15E crew in Iran
On 16 September, the Pentagon released video showing the combat search-and-rescue mission that recovered a severely injured weapons systems officer after his F-15E was shot down over Iran on 13 September. The officer, call sign Dude 44 Bravo, told U. S.
Central Command that a missile strike forced him to eject, his parachute was damaged and he spent roughly 50 hours evading Iranian forces, at one point climbing a 7,000-foot ridge before pararescue teams extracted him. Senior defense officials said the operation involved hundreds of personnel and that the aircraft’s pilot had been rescued earlier.
