For example, if Iran can electronically gain control of the US stealth drones
and bring them to ground without extensive damage,
it would be a remarkable achievement by Iran and setback for the US.

If we are to avoid war with these assholes, we need to remember that what seems like sociopathic bravado and lying is actually a cultural difference.
Iran: "We shot down your drone."
US: "What drone?"
Iran: "The one we shot down."
US: "We have no evidence of a drone being shot down... we did lose one. That happens from time to time, they are flown by people 4000 miles away."
Iran: "Well we shot it down."
US: "Can we see it?"
Iran: "Here it is."
US: "But... that's obviously not shot down, there's no damage to it. If a drone got hit by any proper anti-aircraft gun there would be practically nothing left of it!"
Iran: "I didn't say we shot it down. We have ways."
