US, Israeli fighters avoid Iran skies as Trump loses his most prized F-35, F-15, F-16 jets?

Reports suggest a sharp drop in U.S. and Israeli fighter jet operations over Iran following claims that Iranian air defence systems struck multiple aircraft, including an F-15, F-16 and even a U.S. F-35 stealth jet. Iranian media credits the Majid missile system and an integrated air defence network for forcing a slowdown in aerial missions, particularly over central Iran. A reported hit on the F-35 has raised fresh questions about the survivability of advanced stealth platforms in contested airspace. While reconnaissance flights continue, analysts say the developments could signal a shift in airpower dynamics amid escalating regional tensions.
