Actually sucks the patriot system works so well, it looks like a p3 system shot down a Friendly plane...
Group Capt. Al Lockwood, a spokesman for British forces in the Gulf, said the aircraft may have been shot down over Kuwait.


"One of our aircraft recovering from operations over Kuwait, evidence is beginning to come to light that suggests it was engaged by a U.S. Patriot missile," Lockwood told the British Broadcasting Corp.


Asked whether "engaged" meant "shot down," Lockwood said: "Evidence is pointing in that direction."


A U.S. official confirmed that a Patriot missile battery "may have engaged" the aircraft near the Kuwaiti border. The official said that was all the information available at this point.
