I know a fellow who had to shoot down a Navy fighter in Granada because it destroyed their field command post, killing everyone in it. It was coming around again to continue its handiwork. They had a rather severe communications boondoggle during that fracas.

“I know a fellow who had to shoot down a Navy fighter in Granada”

I did a quick search on US losses from Grenada.

There was a Navy fighter attack against US forces (”Navy fighter-bomber support aircraft providing close air support mistakenly killed American ground forces”) but I see no record of any Navy plane shot down.

If you have a source for this please post.

Thanks!

In Iraq a returning Navy F/A-18 got locked up by a Patriot battery due to a SNAFU with the IFF I suppose. Only way to save himself was to zap the radar with the HARM missile he was bringing back.

I'm not aware of anything like that, does your friend have a source?
