2 pilots out for a joy ride I’m sure if the wanted to bring it down it would have been so!
If not that lets Israel know Iranian pilots are not good in a dog fight!
We used to train the Iranian pilots in the 70’s!

those pilots were ‘attrited’ immediately following the islamic revolution (shot for exhibiting pahlavist tedencies) or in battle during the unpleasantness with iraq.
