Operation "Good Friday"/ Details of the dangerous American mission to
An F-15E fighter jet

Operation "Good Friday" is one of the most difficult missions in the history of the US military.

This high-risk mission aimed to rescue two F-15E pilots from the 494th Regiment who had crashed in Iranian (enemy) territory.

After rescuing one of them, the mission to rescue the second became more complex and required an extraordinary operation.

While some Iranian sources claimed that the second pilot had been captured, the US military continued the search, using a large fleet of helicopters and aircraft to scan the area around the Karun River in Khuzestan, an area known for its rugged terrain and proximity to the Iraqi border. Despite the information from the enemy, the Pentagon was determined to continue the operation to ensure the pilot's rescue.

Missions like this are called “Sandy” and are always entrusted to the most trained personnel. The mission involved locating the downed pilots through a transmitter attached to his chair, which sent continuous signals, and a coded radio to communicate, without revealing his location. Also, the pilot had only his personal belongings and some survival tools, as well as a compass.

In the rescue operation, two US Navy groups, supported by helicopters and warplanes, landed in the area in the early hours of the morning.

After an intense period of enemy threat, the pilots were able to take off, protected by coordinated air and naval support. But it wasn't without risk: several helicopters were shot down and had to make emergency landings in Iraq.

To support the operations, the mission received several special forces and A-10 Warthog aircraft, which provided direct support, but they also faced armed enemy attacks. The US military continued the operation without stopping, to ensure that the pilot would spend the night safely and be rescued, without being captured by Iranian forces.
