Iran shot down a valuable American machine

The event was due to happen on February 21 or 22 of that year, so before Saturday's attack on Iran (Operation Epic Fury). Triton took off from the base in Abu Dhabi and was scheduled to conduct a regular observation, sitting over the Strait of Ormuz. He was then to be electrocuted by a “Russian or Chinese” electronic combat system. The device gave the SOS signal and was then shot down by a kinetic system.
