#9  About 20 years ago, when the Ukrainians accidentally shot down a Russian Tu-154 airliner over the Black Sea during a military exercise, the US early warning satellites picked up the SA-5 missile launch just before the airliner went down. US satellites likely did the same here and records will confirm it.

In addition, the US had plenty of warning that Iranian TBMs were headed to US bases in Iraq. Again, US early warning satellites.

#4  737-800NG not a Max. Tracking last had it at about 7300 ft, climbing, 319kts. Then it stopped transmitting. Per the usual lefty loudmouth online first reports, Technical difficulties, right?

... Like a SAM blowing off one of its engines and setting the aircraft on fire.

#2  Ukrainian airliner in Iran... all sorts of tinfoil hat ideas come to mind, but probably just 'bad luck.'
