"The US Army’s so-called rescue operation, which was planned in the form of a deceive and immediate escape operation under the pretext of rescuing the pilot of its downed aircraft in an abandoned airport in southern Isfahan, was brought to a complete failure by the timing presence of the Iranian armed forces,” Lieutenant-Colonel Ebrahim Zolfaqari said on Sunday."

How did the Americans pick up his electronic beacon and the Iranians didn't? Maybe Americans have superior technology designed for exactly this condition?

"How come Iranian's can't use GPS which is owned by the US Military???"
