New satellite images show destroyed Iranian F-14 fighter jets at an airbase near Isfahan, following Israeli airstrikes earlier this week.
The images, captured by the defense intelligence firm Vantor, show multiple F-14s damaged on the airbase’s taxiways, as well as damage caused to three aircraft shelters and another structure.
The IDF said on Sunday that it had destroyed a number of F-14 jets in strikes at Isfahan, along with detection and air defense systems in the area.
The US-made F-14 Tomcats were supplied to Iran before the 1979 Islamic Revolution and are believed to be the last ones still in operation.

Satellite images released by @vantortech also show damage to at least three aircraft shelters at the Isfahan air base (Shekari 8). Another structure also appears to have been totally destroyed by strikes.
