The US should answer to the UN Security Council if this drone was in Iranian airspace.Iran's Revolutionary Guard shoots down US drone
IRGC says US aircraft brought down in its airspace, but US official says drone was flying in international territory.
Iran's elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has said it shot down a US "spy drone" over its territory, state television reported on Thursday.
An anonymous US official later told news agencies an American naval drone was downed over international airspace.
"The US-made Global Hawk surveillance drone was brought down" in the country's southern coastal province of Hormozgan, the IRGC was quoted as saying by the English-language Press TV.
"It was shot down when it entered Iran's airspace near the Kouhmobarak district in the south," the force's website said.
State television did not provide images of the aircraft.

If it wasn't then the US should confirm its value and Iran should compensate for it. Not in dollars though.
This goading of Iran has to stop.

Iran shot down a US drone with a surface-to-air missile on Thursday
The different accounts couldn't be immediately reconciled.
"The US-made Global Hawk surveillance drone was brought down" in the country's southern coastal province of Hormozgan, the force's website said. "It was shot down when it entered Iran's airspace near the Kouhmobarak district in the south."

Good thing about drones is no pilots get shot down. Iran is lashing/acting out due to rampant inflation/contraction.
Iran inflation could reach 40 percent this year as economy shrinks further - IMF
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-i...-idUSKCN1S509Q
Iran’s economy shrank by 3.9 percent last year, according to IMF estimates, and is expected to shrink by 6 percent in 2019, Jihad Azour, director of the IMF’s Middle East and Central Asia department, told Reuters adding, however, that the projection preceded the latest elimination of waivers.
“Clearly the re-imposition of sanctions and the removal of the waivers will have additional negative impact on the Iranian economy both in terms of growth and in terms of inflation, where inflation could reach 40 percent or even more this year,” he said.
U.S. sanctions against Iran have denied its government more than $10 billion in oil revenue, a U.S. official said earlier this month.
The Iranian currency, the rial, lost more than 60 percent last year, disrupting Iran’s foreign trade and boosting annual inflation.

A US military drone has been shot down by an Iranian surface-to-air missile while in international airspace over the Strait of Hormuz, US officials say.

Time to destroy Iran's ability to shoot down anything.

The trespassing aspect wont be an issue. We are nearly back to 1987 when Iran tried to close the straight and we sank a good share of their navy. Iran will be wrapped up in their support of terrorism against Israel and the Saudis. An ordnance launch will happen with just one more Iranian provocation. Diplomats are out and about today lining up support. Guaranteed.
