You gotta love these guys. In addition to communicating with the local Air Traffic Control facility, all aircraft in the Persian Gulf AOR are required to give the Iranian Air Defence Radar (military) a ten minute ‘heads up’ if they will be transiting Iranian airspace.
This is a common procedure for commercial aircraft and involves giving them your call sign, transponder code, type aircraft, and points of origin and destination.
The following is a conversation apparently overheard on the VHF Guard (emergency) frequency 121.5 MHz while flying from Europe to Dubai.
Whether it’s real or made up doesn’t matter, it’ll still make you snicker and grin.
Iranian Air Defence Radar: ‘Unknown aircraft you are in Iranian airspace. Identify yourself.’
Aircraft: ‘This is a United States aircraft. I am in Iraqi airspace.’
Iranian Air Defence Radar: ‘You are in Iranian airspace. If you do not depart our airspace we will launch interceptor aircraft!’
Aircraft: ‘This is a United States Marine Corps FA-18 fighter. Send ‘em up, I’ll wait!’
Iranian Air Defence Radar: (no response … total silence)

Oorah!
keep talkin shit and our number is coming remember russia is helping iran china is russias allie think about it dumbass.
Not only is Russia not a threat they are our ally. China’s conversion to capitolism makes them on agreeable terms with the US. Iran is not backed by either country “dumbass”
It’s capitalism…..”dumbass.”
Great Tips… Thanks for advice…
Not a very smart move. Iran has plenty of surface to air missiles.
…and now we know where they are all at.
not only fake but dumb as hell cause simply launching ground to air missiles will take out that fancy fighter
101 logic dumb asses and Iran can shoot down that fighter without blinking cause its on its airspace 
.
Really because if a united states aircraft is engaged by a surface to air missile then it would be declared as an act of war and all of Irans air defenses would be destroyed… Smart one
Ummm…. if you just take that big ‘Yeeeeeeee-Fuckin-Hawwwwww’ American-Hat off your now-expected ignorant, ill informed, intolerant, war-mongering, innocent civilian killing, war crime committing think uneducated head for a second and maybe replace it something less stereotypical of how the rest of the world views you and Cletus your in-bred brother… you might actually note that the F/A-18 is actually in Iranian air space. It’s the US fighter committing the act of aggression.
That’s called ‘self defense’ moron…. I think you’re sorry-arse, pathetic excuse for a country tried to use a very similar premise to illegally invade Afghanistan and Iraq… except in this case the Iranian ATC is telling the truth. ‘Truth’… look it up… in a ‘Dictionary’… that’s a ‘Book’… you know, sort of like a big magazine, except no pictures… just ‘Words’… yeah… thought so.
Nic…grow up (who let the Canadians in here anyway?)
Canadian? Independence through Deplomacy and still under the Queen of England’s Monarch. You ain’t even completely independent from a nation the size of your cock and you wanna take shots at us? You better take your ass and get back in line with the rest of em, bitch. You goddamn sure don’t want this one, bub. We actually TOOK our Independence with a smile on our faces and been kickin ass ever since. Continue to talk shit when you rely on the United States if a Nuclear war were to break out. Bigger and claim to be better, but I’m afraid in reality all you are is a poor man’s America with your incredibly small Military and out-dated technology. 95% of Canada’s Military Helicopters and weapons are all American-made.
one day we show you our secret weapon in a real war.
but I know we can destroy you without it.
because people are wise and they will be muslem one by one.like Egypt or Libya.and it’s greatest power even better than our secret weapon.maybe you think I’m joking and wand to scared you but dont worry you will see it soon.
Good bye!
….and you will see a whole bunch of F/A-18′s soon, too, Mohammed.
Oh, please, like Iran has no intention of starting a war with the US and then trying to play the helpless victim. The place is begging to be a Moab parking zone.
It seems to me that some Americans are blood-thirsty arrogant warmongers who like to create bloody conflicts and so were the Nazi SS ! Therefore, the US regime = the Nazi regime !
That’s rich….an “Abdul” complaining about violence and war. Hypocrites.
Ikr? XD
Fake American they are unable to fight Taliban
Hell yeah I love our troops!
I love how they cry about how “violent” the Americans are when umm hello if you all weren’t off killing each other maybe there would be no need for the Americans to he there in the 1st place? Anyway anybody else notice all the porn links after the convo or is that just showing on my phone?
I did as well on my laptop. Sucks, I don’t need that $hit on my computer. Probably Virus infected crap.
Oh America fights the Taliban very easy. Only we have to worry about the world watching because the Chicken Taliban hide with the innocent people. If there were no cameras, America would have finished the war in a year.
Instead, America has to worry about every lost life of an innocent because of the talichicken. It’s politics.
