Check out the video below showing the wreckage of an Iranian F-5 Freedom Fighter that apparently crashed during the massive exercises the middle Eastern country is holding to coincide with the opening (after more than 30 years of trying) of the Bushehr nuclear plant -- the Middle East's first commercial reactor. This comes as the Tehran announced that its latest fighter, the F-5-based Saeqeh has become operational at the squadron level.

No word on the fate of the poor pilot who is seen being pulled from the wreckage while still strapped to his ejection seat. Click through the jump for the video.
