Drone spies on Iran from international airspace

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Only a link because the source article is too short to quote enough to be interesting. 

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/03/14/iranian-fighter-jet-approached-us-drone-over-international-waters-pentagon-says/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+foxnews%2Fpolitics+%28Internal+-+Politics+-+Text%29

Okay now, let’s see if I am understanding this correctly …

A drone was spying on Iran. An Iranian F4 got within 16 miles of it and was fired upon by US forces using a flare.

A flare? Since when do flares have that sort of range?

The US makes it sound as if it was fully in the right by pointing out that they were in international airspace the whole time … all the while conveniently overlooking the fact that the Iranian AF jet was ALSO in international airspace. 

Ya know what, if the Iranian had fired on either the drone or its escorts I could see sending the Iranian jet on a one-way trip to the ground. But to fire first when you have been caught spying means to abandon the moral high ground. 

I must be missing something.

For the Iranian radar to spot the drone, it probably also spotted the USAF escorts. Yet the Iranians only sent up one plane. Doesn’t sound to me like he was up there to pick a fight.

Or does this article tell us that the USAF fighting planes are able to deceive Iranian radar?

Sorry folks, but all I’ve got are questions. However, I think they are good ones.
