*In October of 1980 during the [[Iran-Iraq War]], an Iranian [[F-4 Phantom]] had just evaded an [[Iraq]]i [[Surface-to-air missile|SAM]] when it suffered a bird strike to the engines and cockpit.  The pilot was injured and knocked unconscious, but the radar intercept officer in the backseat was able to pilot the plane back to base.  The plane was eventually repaired, but the engines had been so badly damaged that both had to be replaced.<ref>''Iranian F-4 Phantom II Units in Combat'', by Farzad Bishop and Tom Cooper, Osprey Publishing, 2003</ref>
