Bad title, should be "denied that it was an Iran Mothership".
Yeah..

I wonder if there's a term for writing something that is correct grammatically but is trying to deliberately mislead the less literate members of public. Which, TBH, is a gigantic majority. In this case it's easy to misunderstand the title as "The DoD shot an Iranian mothership?!?".

It's an interesting form of clickbait.

I think it’s just the linguistic style of TWZ from their military culture not intentional.
Fixed. Thanks!
