A US F‑15 pilot shot down over Iran in June 2026 stated he saw multiple Iranian drones massing in one distinctive ‘jellyfish’ formation ahead of his jet was hit. The formation, said by CNN, The Times of Israel, The Jerusalem Post and Anadolu Ajansı, was described as groups of drones clustering together and then spreading out in a pattern that reminded observers of a jellyfish’s bell and tentacles, creating one visually striking swarm that preceded that aircraft’s loss.
