UPDATED: US Aircraft Casualties as of 07/08/2026
--- #OperationEpicFury / #ProjectFreedom / #IranWar ---
A minor update to my previous post of US air losses to reflect new video/photo evidence today of some of the losses (including recent confirmations of airframe identities). The following updates have been added to the graphic:
- F-15E "DUDE44" shot down over Iran confirmed as RAF Lakenheath-based (LN) F-15E 00-0300 #AE178B
- MQ-1C confirmed shot down with registration 16-02172 has been added
- KC-135R suspected destroyed at Prince Sultan Airbase in the same incident as the E-3G believed to be 59-1461 #AE0626
- KC-135R 63-8028 #AE05AB confirmed as one of the previously unidentified damaged aircraft
Also of note:
- C-130H 91-1653 attacked by a protester at Shannon Airport has not been tracked flying since
- All 5 of the unidentified tankers CENTCOM confirmed had been damaged appear to have only been minor and have been repaired & returned to flight - some of these we think we have ID'd but unable to confirm for certain
- @vcdgf555 is getting closer to identifying the 2x MC-130J destroyed in the CSAR mission
I will post the link to the previous edition of this chart in the replies below.

NEW: Comprehensive Imagery Report on Nuclear Enrichment Related Sites, Post-April Ceasefire
Following the ceasefire between Iran, the United States and Israel established in early April 2026, we have continued to monitor key sites related to Iran’s nuclear program. In this report, we take a close look at key sites related to uranium enrichment, which include Esfahan, Fordow, and Natanz, the two separate mountain tunnel facilities south of the Natanz site, as well as centrifuge production sites. Several of these sites have shown signs of activity. While the activity visible in imagery is not conclusive, collectively, they indicate the following:
- There is no evidence of any uranium enrichment, and the centrifuge program remains destroyed. Nonetheless, the need remains to verifiably dismantle or further disable Iran’s remaining enrichment facilities, close Pickaxe mountain and other underground sites, and remove or downblend the ten tonnes of enriched uranium, including about 440 kilograms of 60 percent enriched uranium.
- Iran has not given up on its enrichment program altogether;
- The underground Natanz Fuel Enrichment Plant (FEP) is believed to hold enriched uranium, and may hold intact centrifuges, components, and equipment, but is currently inaccessible due to March 2026 strikes on the entrances.
-Stocks of enriched uranium, including the 60 percent highly enriched uranium, appear to remain bottled up in underground facilities at Esfahan, Natanz, and Fordow. All tunnel entrances at Esfahan, Fordow, and Natanz that were sealed prior to March 2026 remain sealed. The latter tunnel was built in 2007 and was sealed early in the months following the June strikes, raising concern about its current content.
-The large tunnel complex known as Pickaxe mountain remains largely accessible and open and under ongoing construction; it is not assessed to hold facilities ready to operate. It is not believed to hold enriched uranium stocks.
-Above-ground centrifuge production sites remain destroyed with no evidence of reconstruction.
-Other enrichment-related assets may be more accessible; the limited damage inflicted on the Fordow support site appears disproportionate to its importance and current activity around the support site seems high. The status remains unclear of a planned enrichment building at the site estimated to hold two cascades, albeit one planned to separate mainly iridium or tellurium. But if iridium hexafluoride and tellurium hexafluoride have not yet been introduced into the centrifuge cascades, the cascades could be used for uranium enrichment.
- Given Iran’s ongoing refusal to provide required information on its enriched uranium stocks or allow the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) access to enrichment related sites, including the location of enriched uranium, centrifuge inventory, and related equipment, the IAEA relies heavily on satellite imagery. However, with respect to Iran, unlike with North Korea, the IAEA rarely reports on its assessments from imagery, as evidenced in the short NPT safeguards and JCPOA Verification reports presented to the Board this week. Our recommendation is that the Board of Governors instruct the IAEA to report more information to its member states regarding Iranian activities observed at nuclear sites, especially with regard to the recovery of equipment and enriched uranium from the destroyed sites, the possible current locations of enriched uranium or diversion of that material, and the status of nuclear weaponization sites and other key assets. Here, it should be remembered that the benchmark set for Iran by current UN Security Council sanctions resolutions is a suspension of all enrichment activities, including research and development.
It is important to remember that an enrichment capability requires significantly more than the existence of UF6 and centrifuges or centrifuge parts. Thus, the existence of the enriched uranium or centrifuge-related items should not be confused with Iran’s ability to enrich uranium, a capability not now existing in Iran. Another common misinterpretation is to confuse the HEU stock with building nuclear weapons, a process that has been significantly lengthened by the damage wrought by the two wars. Removing or downblending the HEU may be necessary for a nuclear deal, but the HEU’s presence in Iran does not mean that Iran is enriching uranium or building nuclear weapons. This HEU was there before the June war, coupled with a nuclear weapons program that could produce a weapon in months. Today, that timeline is at least a year. Moreover, moving technically to build that weapon is now fraught with risks and potential technical hurdles that could result in failure.
