1:28Now PlayingDramatic video appears to show a US F-15 fighter jet pilot being threatened by a Kuwaiti local wielding a metal pipe.
“Back up, stop,” the pilot was heard yelling as the man holding the pipe tried to yank him forward using his parachute chord.
The pipe-wielding local looks as he’s about to strike before the pilot gets on his knees and raises his arms, according to the video shared on X. Three F-15E Strike Eagle jets, which cost around $31.1 million each, were downed by Kuwaiti friendly fire. All six crew members safely ejected from the planes and are stable. Kuwait’s defense ministry has confirmed it’s coordinating with the US regarding the “circumstances of the incident.”
