US bombs Iranian decoy jets

TEHRAN,(CAJ News) – THE world couldn’t stop laughing after the United States mistakenly bombed decoy Iranian fighter jets, thinking it had delivered a major strike—only to reveal a serious intelligence embarrassment for Washington.

Reports indicate that Iran’s intelligence service used thermal paint to create the appearance of F-14 fighter jets on the ground.

In response, the U.S released images showing missiles and bombs hitting what they believed were real jets.

Meanwhile, the Iranian Air Force had already moved its actual fighter jets underground, leaving American and Israeli forces striking nothing but painted decoys.

Social media erupted with jokes about the U.S Air Force proudly sharing images of “destroyed” Iranian F-14s that never existed.

American journalist Jackson Hinkle remarked, “The U.S. is now posting videos of airstrikes on decoy fighter jets (paintings on the ground) with multimillion-dollar bombs.”

Barnicoat added, “The U.S has bombed DECOY fighter jets in Iran—an enormous embarrassment.”

Other reactions included Ben Cohen: “Now the Americans might skip the real ones assuming they are painted.”

Roberto commented: “It’s shocking that they posted these videos. Didn’t anyone realize they were just paintings?”

Pascal Kakimba noted: “Bombing a drawing—now that’s a tough game.”

Apex summed it up: “The U.S. is dropping multimillion-dollar bombs on painted decoys and posting it as combat footage. In modern warfare, optics sometimes move faster than missiles.”
